Simon Grayson concedes that Naylor is slightly behind on his fitness and told the club's official website: "We took a decision for Richard to stay at Thorp Arch and continue his fitness work. It's been a gradual process with him. He's slightly behind on fitness and we feel his time is better spent at Thorp Arch over the next week.
"But despite being behind with his fitness, Grayson has no concerns over his leadership qualities, adding: "Richard will be club captain again next season, there is no doubt about that."
