Coleman's a moron. No need to make all that public and make it into an issue. Have a quiet word with Ramsey (nobody else needed to know about it), get the all-clear, and then call Shawcross up. I can't imagine Ramsey would have a problem with it. If he does, I really don't think he should be a captain.
