Squad numbers - one for the stattos.

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Has anybody got a record of who's who on the Albion squad numbers since the system was introduced?

Would be interesting to see who's worn the shirt and who's considered the best at each number, maybe even picking your best team from the numbers.

Some numbers tend to stay with a position but others, like 15, as far as I can remember, have had Nathan Jones, Murphy & Vicente and Goldson is now 17 but Murray also wore the shirt. Then again we have KLL, who would be up against BZ for the 25 or Will Buckley for the 30. Going back, Kerry Mayo or GG for no 3.

Any takers?

Who on earth authorised McCammon to wear the 25 shirt?

 

[Seaber]

Anton Rogers and Robbie Savage both wore #44.

Just off the top of my head, Calderón has worn #14 and #19, LuaLua has worn #12, #25 and #30, Hammond wore #4, #11, #22.

Most young players (JFC, Ince, etc) have worn muliple numbers.

I always associate #1-11 as
1 GK
2 RB
3 LB
4 CM
5 CB
6 CB
7 RM
8 CM
9 ST
10 ST/CM
11 LM

Not much chance of him being our best 25!

Thanks for the link, just looking at that 1st season, we've got though some players!

In that 1st season Aiden Newhouse started with the 25 but Bobby had it by the end.
