My brother bumped into Macca yesterday and asked him about what was going on. He said he didn't know but as a Cov Kid, he would stand up and be counted on Saturday, fill in for Captain Bakes and do it for the fans.

He said he had a shirt printed and would unveil it when he scores on Saturday, wouldn't say what was on it.

Now that's someone who cares about the club.

Hope it's not an urgent message if we've got to wait for him to score :p

To be fair he's been saying on twitter they'll give it 110% for the fans and Baker made a similar comment on Facebook

Is this a wind up?

1. I hope he does score, but he only has 2 all season but i might have a quid

2. If he is captain any respect for pressley has gone as he must have been watching different games thorn style

That's laughable! Hes up for it? What about the previous 39 fixtures.

As for being captain? You have to earn that right and id be very surprised (and disappointed) if he got the armband.

As for scoring, thats the funniest part ;) :laugh:

Good ole Sheffers, True City if ever there was one.

He's come in for a lot of stick lately, which is just so uncool, ok he ain't playing at his best at the mo, but wtf every player has bad spells. But even so, the commitment and passion for cov is there. Whats wrong with that!

He'll be back, of that i have no doubt. ;)

Have you actually watched him play in the past 2 seasons? He was poor last season, got shown up for pace so many times it was beyond a joke. 2 goals for a striker in a league where teams can score goals for fun isn't just poor, it is shockingly awful!

As for him being a city boy - there are around 10k city boys there season after season! How many would give their right arm for Sheffers privileged life?

As others have said he should give 110 %, although obviously 110% is impossible, but there is NO EXCUSE for not giving 100%!

I have no doubt he is trying, but every player comes to a point when they simply cannot do it anymore!

Lineker was a brilliant player, but would I have him in the squad ? (probably considering how awful our current strike force are!) :cool:

Not here for the money? Could have fooled me!
