It's also latin for "defender".

I don't believe it is, though it has been a while since I studied Latin -

"Captain" from Old French capitaine, from Late Latin capitāneus chief, from Latin caput head

Also there is no El in Latin as they did not use "the".

Defend is normally something like munio, assero or patrocinor if I recall correctly.

All in all I believe the Spanish translation to be more likely.

Hook, line and sinker.

The captain = song by Biffy Clyro. Scottish Band - We are signing disgraced Scotland Captain Barry Ferguson! Get in!

Tolmie just PM'd me this.

Puppet on a string - says a playmaker to me... after all there needs to be someone who pulls the strings (like the object of the song)

Svennis was taking the piss with that vid mate.

TH didnt pm him that link, Svennis is just making out that TH has us all like puppets on a string!

i regretted it last season when he missed 7 games for stamping and slapping. i personally blame him for not finishing fourth. but hey opinions are mine and i dont give a flying if you like them or not. if you think he will be a starter for us next year then i am glad your not the manager.

Er!! think, I said, I hope you regret it, meaning, I hope he does well for City, it's called showing support for the Lads, he will probably be 1 of 3/4 top class strikers in the squad, I tell myself not to post because of people like this, there you go fcked myself up again got sucked in
