A tweet from Forresters Twitter says that Flynny has confirmed Crofts as Captain.

Makes sense, senior pro with Wales caps. Looking forward to seeing what he can do for us.

Lots of midfielders if that is the case- Cooper, Dolan and Sheehan as well to accomodate... Interesting to see what formation Flynny plays this season.

On paper I would still would have made Mickey D captain and then offered him a long term contract. I’m still not convinced crofts plays anywhere near every game this season where as Mickey D will be first name on the team sheet. But as I always say about the captaincy we are not in the dressing room so we don’t actually know who is the best leader.

Is that the same Forrester that used to post on here and was a New Mills fan

Agree with you there Bush.

There's a BBC Sport story on Crofts getting the armband. Mentions the following on Labadie:

"Crofts takes over from midfielder Joss Labadie, who is out of contract but continuing his rehabilitation at Newport following ACL surgery"

Anyone know if this is true? Did see a video of Labadie on social media training in the gym in Spytty.
