With the announcement due this week just wondered who would forumers would like to see leading the team at Celtic Manor?
 
The only option is Ian Woosnam in Wales to create the passion that lacked by Faldo's weak attempt, we had Seve in Spain and won a great victory, why not Woosam in Wales?

Completely Agree with you Parmo you cannot underestimate the power of the crowd, who would become thirteeth man.

Nothing against Monty or olly but being lead by a welshman in wales would be an advantage we should not dismiss.
 
I think Ollie should do it for two cups, as having a new captain every time doesn't really work for me. It must take time to get into the job, and there must be things that if you did it again you would do differently (except Faldo, who says he would change nothing - idiot).
 
Who the hell voted for Faldo?? someone needs to be shot.

That was me. I think he deserves another chance! The team thought he was brilliant and if it wasn't for the americans playing unbelievably well on the sunday then we could all well be singing from a different hymn sheet, so to speak!
Just my opinion though and to be fair, I've only been into golf for eight months!
 
It looks for all the wolrd like they are going to go Monty in Wales & Ollie in the US.

But me, I still want Lyle to get it, with Ollie in the US then Monty at Gleneagles.

Faldo should never be seen anywhere near a Ryder Cup again, and that has nothing to do with the result, I thought he was a bad pick, and much of what he did proved that to be the case.
 
Actually agree with murph, Ollie for two, then Monty for two although that almost demands that he be vice to Ollie in the US but if he is ever to Captain there he has to beat the demon.
 
Got to be Woosnam for Celtic Manor. Got to win it back and his appointment would really get the fans fired up!

Should never be Sandy Lyle though, after what he did at The Open he should never get it. Showed a complete lack of respect for the greatest competition in golf!
 
I would go for Faldo again. His much criticised two picks performed pretty well but his 'big guns' let him down a bit. On top of that, the Yanks performed well above expectations. You can't really fault Faldo's team arrangement and he deserves another go at it.
 
Woosnam for me, Like the Idwa of having the crowd right behind him. Makes sense and I think would be more than capable.

Beleive Monty should have ago, just not yet!
 
I said Sandy just because, he should get a turn. Woosnam should be the pick for reasons already stated although why not give Faldo another go? If Olly does get it, he should get it for 2 attempts, one in Europe and one in the US as should future Captains.
