Lack of news update - Due to 2 weeks in the sun there has been lack of updates on www.bluenose.tk but now i'am back and raring to go . The new Captain has been named as Damien johnson, the international star will take the captaincy for the new season

Damien Johnson - The one to lead us to the top next season , Has been announced as the new Captain follwing old man Kenny's departure who is expected to sign for sunderland.

In a Interview given to www.bcfc.com he said :- 

"It was nothing formal when the gaffer told me, it was just on the training pitch," he recalled.

"I was shocked and very surprised. I was overwhelmed as well, it's a big honour.

"I know I was maybe not the obvious candidate and I don't know what the reaction has been, but it's something I am looking forward to and I see as a challenge.

"I have played under a few different captains and it's a bit of a stereotype that he is a ranter and a raver.

"That's not the type of person I am. But I will say, when it comes to stuff on the pitch, I do put my point across. If things need to be said, I will say them and that's always been the case for me.

"I don't see it changing me too much. Hopefully I will be able to show the lads on the pitch, lead by example.

"That's what the gaffer said to me to do.

"There's lads who come out with battle cries in the press, that's their way of doing it, I just hope to be effective on the pitch.

"We have a young squad, we want to play a certain way this year and I can hopefully be at the forefront of that really."

Johnson, who commands the respect of his peers in the squad, is a reserved and quiet personality off the pitch. He gives interviews, albeit reluctantly.

He joked: "I think our press officer Andy Maxey probably had a sleepless night at the prospect of me being captain!

"I like to do my talking on the pitch.

"Obviously I will be more accessible to chaps like yourself and what needs to be done on behalf of the club, I will do it."

(Upson was tipped by many to be the new Captain)

"I have got to say, the first day back you had a look round and it was completely different. There were so many players no longer here.

"But the situation we are in, it's a positive.

"The lads who are here from last year want to be here and put things right. The new lads are hungry to do well and prove themselves.

"That goes for the staff as well. Dan Harris has come in on fitness coach and it has been the most organised pre-season really, it has been top-class.
