Squad numbers 2017/18 season

[Hungry Joe]

What about a number 25 goal scorer?

Zamora's coming out of retirement. You heard it here first....

On the first team profiles page on the club website, Ince is still listed as #24, Towell is #27, and Walton is #31.

Suggests to me that while Towell hasn't been given a number in the club statement because he's going out on loan, like Walton, he's still considered a member of the first team squad - backed up by the new deal we gave him in the summer.

Ince is a weird one - his number has been given away so unless they update the website to give him a new number, maybe he'll be out the door sooner rather than later, probably sold rather than on loan?

What about a number 25 goal scorer?

Semi serious question – has the No 25 shirt been retired after Zamora left, or was that just a rumour/gesture suggested by someone? Only Kaz didn't take it back last season and hasn't for this season – although I suspect he probably won't be here anyway, despite having a squad number.

Should of given number 8 to Pröpper and 7 to March

And 10 to Gross?

 

[Albumen]

Why does Kaz have a number but Ince doesn't?

Because Ince will be in the championship come September. Kaz is a crazy sub.

 

[McTavish]

And 10 to Gross?

Surely Gross should get 144...

I suspect the club get complaints when players change number, so they've tried to minimise it this year.

There are at least two No 3s missing

Why take the number 7 shirt from Kayal?

 

[Raskolnikov]

When was the last time our No.1 actually wore the no.1 shirt? I seem to remember Caspar, PIG and Stockdale all wearing numbers other than 1. Was it Brezovan back in League 1?

Sunday?

7 is a wingers number

 

[Bry Nylon]

Frankly, 37 is a frickin' ridiculous shirt number.

Would love a return to times when the starting line-up simply wore 1 to 11, subs started at 12 and there were no names on shirts.

The year is 2017 not 1977 It's not as though we see numbers 1 to 11 on the backs of shirts from kick off.

I know i know, just something doesn't sit right.

Bit like Leicester giving Iheanacho number 8

I grew up watching football with numbers 1-11 on shirts and number 12 as sub, I did prefer this and knew which number was which position on the pitch.

Maybe Kayal likes number 7, I don't know to be honest, but it would be wrong to take it away from him if he's happy with that number.

Great to see him in the 25 (at present). He is unique and a great joker for CH to play as a sub although I admit he is about 5th choice for the left wing starting position at present.

What position did Bryan Robson play then?

Maybe he sees himself playing just off the main striker but number 10 is already taken. So 3+7.
