So  Pon reported That Kevin Nolan has stated that Richard Duffy could be the Notts captain  for 18/19’seasom... but we will need to wait a few weeks for confirmation.

Thoughts guys ?? 

He is a good leader. If he is out, I imagine Vaughan will take over

Vaughan is the popular choice among the fans ... although you can’t deny that duffy does have those qualities

not really, he was barely capable last season and if he does get the captaincy this year i would hope for better.

he cant walk around swearing and getting the match officials faces.

At times he was good last season

The falling over and getting in the officials face needs to stop but as a captain, you have to be the one talking to the referee if a bad decision is made

I don't think Duffy should be captain. Maybe give it to Elliott Hewitt

@magpiejue No guarantees that Hewitt will be a certain starter. Matt Tootle perhaps?

Give it David Vaughan and get him to be the player who organises the team throughout the squad.

His experience could be vital.

If Duffy is going to start despite there being better players such as Hall, I doubt the club will avoid giving him the captaincy.

Looks like Duffy and Nolan are good friends. 

Would prefer someone else as captain, Richard Duffy seems a poor choice to me.

I would be okay with Duffy as captain if he improved his performances and stopped the moaning that he does. He needs to be the example in defence.

I'm not Duffy's biggest fan.

Personally I don't think he can improve enough not to be a weakness in the squad, giving him the captaincy seems about a poor of a decision as it is to insist on starting him. We should have signed a more defensive minded centre back. I hope Kevin Nolan looks elsewhere, the armband should go to someone who can lift the squad and get the best out of players. Arguing, diving and all the nonsense that comes with Duffy isn't good enough for me.

I had a feeling when I saw this it wouldn’t be the most popular choice with Vaughan and others in line.

I'm still not convinced Duffy has the leadership qualities needed to be captain. On the other hand, it's really not the done thing to give new signings the armband.

Either way, telling the media that he's thinking about it isn't KN's best move. Now, if he changes his mind and gives someone else the captaincy, it'll look like a proper slapdown for Duffy.

I would rather give Jon Stead the captaincy than Richard Duffy!

Neither of them make much sense.

Richard Duffy will be appointed the captain, Kevin Nolan seems to trust him and they have a mutual understanding I would assume.

I wouldn't be overly bothered if it happened, but I think there's better options.

I have seen highlights of Richard Duffy and he seems your typical lower league centre back.

I see no issue with him being made the captain if he leads by example and tries his hardest to lift the squad when they require that extra focus in order to win key games. Kevin Nolan will know who's best.
