A rival website (ok eleven-a-side.com) are running a poll to see who should be Irish captain. It worries me that 2.8% of those surveyed think it should be John O'Shea. I feel we are suffering enough.

Ah he's probably voting for himself, wouldnt worry about it. For me anyway it would be between Dunne or Given, and based on his leadership in the Czech game - Carsley.
Resign, now!
We had a thread on this before and I'm sure the concencus were against Keane as captain. I am. Let him concentrate on scoring goals. The responsibility should go to a centre half/ centre-mid or someone who is clearly a leader.
I plumped for Dunne previously because I'm against Keepers as captains as quite often they've long spells out of games or too far away from the action regularily. We, however, don't have someone reliable, so Given is the automatic choice.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Stan and John Delaney are voting no doubt to soften us up before letting that rock fall on us.
I would consider Finnan as an option for captain btw in the absence of anyone else.
short term Carsley .. just to ensure that he starts in all the games .. don't have another player in the team like him .. Kavanagh is probably past it and would never be an automatic starter.
not going to happen though. probably a pointless discussion as Stan is stubborn (although the sudden inclusion of Carsley looked like pressure being brought to bear) and will not change Keane as captain for the foreseeable future
I've thought about Finnan as well actually - I think he is too quiet though. Very very good player who will rarely let you down but zero leadership qualities. If it was down to me the captain would be Given - no question.
