AFC Telford boss Rob Edwards mulling over next captain
AFC Telford United boss Rob Edwards will continue to hand members of his squad the opportunity to test themselves as skipper.
The Bucks chief had another chance to shape his squad today as they hosted phoenix club Hereford.
Twenty-year-old Kieran Dunbar was the surprise occupant of the captain's armband in last Saturday's 1-0 loss to Wolves' under-23s.
On handing the armband to the former Birmingham City and Fleetwood Town midfielder, Edwards said: "There were some older players starting the game, but I just thought I had a young player in the middle of the pitch, it might bring something out of him.
"I thought it would be good for him, and I wanted to have a look at it. There will be other people given a chance.
"I just wanted to have someone in the middle of the pitch who I thought would benefit from a bit of responsibility."
Jas Singh, Matthew Barnes-Homer and Shane Sutton have also had the armband in recent friendlies.
Goalkeeper Singh and centre-half Sutton are obvious candidates, while midfielder Jack Rea has also skippered the Bucks.
Singh has a number of years' experience in the National League North while Sutton was captain of Welsh top-flight side Newtown.
Manchester-based Rea is the club's longest-serving player, having joined in January 2015.
