fatshaft Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Who did you want? I didn't want the cunt Monty to get it, neither did the players...not a good sign.I'd have had Monty before that weasel. The players didn't not want Monty, they expressed a preference for McGinley.

sheepiekev Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'd have had Monty before that weasel. The players didn't not want Monty, they expressed a preference for McGinley. I'd suggest that the players know more about it than you.If the likes of McIlroy, Donald, and Rose all get behind Paul McGinley, I'm not sure what your problem is. Link to comment

OddJob Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 According to 'Rory' you are only supposed to be captain once. That can't be right as Bernard Gallacher was captain at least 3 times was he not? Link to comment
Dynamo Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Why do you think McGinley is a prick fatshaft? What has he done that has led you to think this? Genuinely interested as to why McGinley is a prick as I've always thought he was pretty harmless. Link to comment
Arild Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm pleased that it's McGinley - he's a self effacing guy who will have the best interests of the team at heart with no agenda of self promotion. Monty's ego has always been a problem and he loves to be the centre of attention far too much - even in the commentary box at Medinah he was trying to claim some credit and celebrate the win as if he'd been part of it. Monty is a winning Ryder Cup captain but his team only won one session at Celtic Manor - and it was the session where all 12 players played due to the rain delays, so it wasn't even as if he had to think about leaving guys out.

Redstar Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Also intrigued as to how anyone can describe McGinley as a prick. Monty, on the other hand...Not terribly intriguing when you consider who made the comment...It's probably the best seal of approval as a decent sort any cu*t could receive Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 sometimes monty comes across like he may have mental health issues. Link to comment

Genuinely interested as to why McGinley is a prick as I've always thought he was pretty harmless.He's the fella who was the driving force behind Lyle not getting the honour. And now, a guy who couldn't lace his boots is RC captain. Nah, not for me. Link to comment

Arild Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Lyle was the best ever Scottish talent and has the best playing record but he clearly wasn't right for the captain role. He's a bit of a loner, a bit of a weirdo (as is his wife) and there's no way he has the breadth of personality to take on the job. Just like Faldo, and look what happened when he got the job...

fatshaft Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 No idea where you got this impression. Never heard this one masel but even if true, that strengthens his case for me.Well reported at the time. Talk was of Lyle and others, McGinley said after Faldo's disastrous appointment, it should go to the right person, not the most deserving person. At this point, monty who as you know wason the committee, was asked to leave the room so that his own suitability could be openly discussed, he was called back in and offered the job there and then.

cow Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Shocking that Lyle was overlooked. 1 Link to comment
