There will be both dancing and mourning in the street tonight as the controversial Mexican has stepped down as Fighting Fury captain effective immediately.

Sources can reveal that fumbler and tigland will co-captain for the remainder of the season while Chez will continue to be apart of the leadership group.

Chez was able to be reached for comment where he confirmed the decision was official and had the following to say.

'I'm very proud of my four seasons as Fury captain, I can confidently say I worked with the best people involved in the SFA and they made it a real joy to be their leader. Taking the team to back to back grand finals was really special for me, even if we couldn't get that ultimate success.

When asked about the criticism that had come his way Filthy wasn't looking for any fights.

'There's no point in settling old scores now. While I was captain I made a lot of friends and even more enemies, but at least that shows that I was doing something.'

This reporter raised an eyebrow when Chez claimed he had so-called 'friends' but the Mexican was quick to back up his point.

'Tigland is always the first to come to mind when I look at my greatest supporters. Since I started the league we've just clicked with our banter, leadership and support for one another. We're two of the few 'one club players' and without him my SFA experience would've been totally different.'

While this may be goodbye, Chez was quick to assure this was not a farewell.

'Let's make one thing clear, I'm not going anywhere. I still haven't experienced the ultimate success and just because I'm no longer captain, that doesn't mean I'm any less hungry. I'm always hungry. I could go for a burrito right now!

Once this reporter was able to pull the ex-captain away from the food cart Filthy had one final message for the SFA world.

Whether you've loved me like tacos or hated me like beans, thankyou for making the last four seasons so very entertaining for me. Ciao for now Amigos!!

Feel free to leave your hate mail well wishes for Sanchez below.

You were a captain?

I remember Filthy in my first season. Boy did he make me laugh. Shame RL happened.

Terrible captain though, just woeful.
 
fumbler was 50% successful - that's scary.

Surely tigland is good enough to do it on his own without the 'help' of someone else.

I have always said I will only be captain, if I was a co-captain. The commitment is huge and work forces me overseas too much to not have someone else in the role with me.
 
Fair call tigland

Surely Claypigeon would've been the better option though. Does a wonderful job at the Phoenix.

fumbler may be a bit out there but is passionate enough to do this with tigland. Don't sell him so short.

So fumbler got his way.

Also Gumbies lost in their match after peterss stepped down. Mark my words, Wonders will defeat Furies on Sunday night.
 
Tigland was an obvious choice.

fumbler's an eccentric fellow but his enthusiasm for the job and future plans for the Furies should see him exceed all expectations, and definitely have some fun in the committee room. I think the league will be surprised by his aptness for the role #standbyfumbler

I can only assume Claypigeon wasn't interested in the captaincy, much like at the Gumbies.

Thanks guys.

Why is this being made about me though?

It is Filthy Sanchez who should be applauded, no one pushed, stabbed, bashed or whatever adjactive to Filthy Sanchez as he saw the bigger picture for the Furies and decided that he would take a rest from the Captains role and give two others a go. Not once has Filthy ever made the Furies captaincy role about himself, he was one of the great captains at the Furies and has more to show for is efforts than either myself or some other cheap tricks could only dream of.

I thank Filthy Sanchez for giving me a shot when i know that there are others who are more deserving than i at the Furies.

Once more please refrain from posting your unwanted thoughts on me and pay tribute to a player who had the captaincy thrusted upon him in only his 10th game or so.
