McCormack will not be dropped, nor should he be.

Still don't think we'll get promoted with Ross in the team, and certainly not as captain...too selfish to be captain. Undroppable right now though I agree...

64 is getting more like Twiggster every day - he has his scapegoat who must be criticised every game.

Why not rest Ross & try something different with 5 in midfield & the big man upfront especially away at Watford. He looked knackered at Wigan & was ineffective v Charlton & Donny. It's been a long old season where Ross has featured in the majority of the games, our other players have had breathers during the campaign

Top prem players such as Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard, etc are rested by their managers !

I'm not denying your comments but you & others are not seeing the big picture. McCormack is showing signs of fatigue so resting him & saving him for the Blackpool game makes sense !

Remember what Warnock did to Byram

Watched the rerun of the game on sky and it was stated McCormack was suffering from a heavy cold I doubt any of us could run around like he did if we had one.

We could argue all night about this, I think Ross needs a rest IMO

If we employ a decent manager he will rotate & rest his top players
