Watched the interview with Harry Pell on the Fishy and, having seen him play against Stanley, my immediate thought was that he seems potential captain material. So not surprised by what Coley said today ahead of the Wycombe game. In Conneely’s absence it’d be useful to have a shouter on the pitch who can help organise the defence.

actually when we signed harry pell i thought he could end up being a seamus replacement. both him and sean must be getting close to the end of their time at this level due to age.

Coley has just handed Seamus a one year extension on his contract adding that there's a couple of season,s left in him, remember him saying the exact same thing when he did the same with Mark Hughes. Nobody can predict the future nor can you stop the years creeping up on you.

if seamus plays like he did last season then i think hes good for a couple more years.

Plus Harry is a totally different midfielder to Seamus. Harry can make lung busting runs going forward. Seamus will sit in and guard the rear.
Seamus is playing the best football of his career. Age is just a number.

I totally agree with you but most managers will look to the future or should do, hope Seamus has a great 2 more years with us, age is a number but unless you're a very lucky guy as in normal life injuries if you get them take longer to recover from, as mentioned on hear Sean doesn't look the same player after his. I can see that point of view maybe correct or he's using his experiences to maybe not commit in tackles as much human nature. I personally think Sean down to his age needs to play in his best position on any wing cutting in, but Coley has plenty of options now so get the shirt play well or lose it.

Good luck to him. Was impressed by his efforts against Preston.

Listened to Coleys interview earlier and he mentioned keeping a couple of slots open....... next day, Barca announce Messi has left the Club.........

Read into it what you will, but Sean might have his work cut out at set pieces

Would that mean that our corners would get past the first defender?

Often didn't, back in the day ................

agree especially on the years creeping up on you. over the years of watching football i have seen many older lads playing one season too long at clubs. they finish one season on a high and the next one they are unrecognisable from that player. know that players work harder on their fitness nowadays but everyones bodies are different. there are young and old 30 pluses around in the game.

Nah, nobody will muscle in on Sean's set pieces - many have tried & failed
