Burn 'has to be' captain - fan views
You can scroll down this page and see what BBC Radio Newcastle's Lee Hawthorn thinks as he ranked eight contenders. Tony: Dan Burn for captain although it's a fair point in saying you need someone consistently likely to start most/all games and that might not be our local boy. Phil: I'd go with either Malick Thiaw or Joelinton, and since we're talking modern football with "leadership groups" then I'd include Jacob Murphy, Dan Burn and Fabian Schar with the future looking towards Lewis Miley and Lewis Hall.
