Briz Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 we gave holloway a squad number for the last 3 seasons he hasn't been involved The point I'm trying to make is that none of the youngsters (Burns,Ajala,King,Dobie,Batten) had been given sqaud numbers this season, when at the end of last season most of them had.

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 thats because baring an injury crisis none of them will play as they are not as good as the senior players Well they're young, admittedly, but I doubt it would take an injury 'crisis' for the likes of Burns and Ajala to be involved. Few clubs will use fewer than 25 players across a season, so many of these can expect to be involved at some stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns has Harewood taylor baldock and jet infront of him, Ajaa has bryan wagstaff wytner infront of him and ried has about every single senior central midfielder in front of him, They need to be playing football and first team football at that (burns not so much) and they aren't going to get that here at this moment in time, Loan them out if a 24hr recall clause and get them playing and devloping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many were confused to why they hadnt been given sqaud numbers, then the answer to that was that there wernt in SOD plans for early in the season. I just find it a bit odd as to why Brundle wasn't given a sqaud number but has so early in the season, why didn't we just give him one when all the others were realesed. They clearly are in the plans otherwise why would have SOD given one to Brundle who travelled up to Gillingham with the sqaud!!! Understand now!

jambodinho Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Maybe we are just keeping as many numbers free for potential new signings at the moment. The younger lads will get numbers when called upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rizzle Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 My understanding is that because we now have this vibrant under-21 development team if we were to give squad numbers to everyone it would be a very 'busy' squad list and many wouldn't ever play. As a result they've only given numbers to first team players and will allocate squad numbers to others as and when they make a first team squad. I.e. Brundle against Gills. I fully expect burns and ajala to be involved at some point, but others in that group won't be anywhere near the first team this year. I guess it's just a neater way of doing it, rather than having a list of squad numbers heading up towards 40! And as others have said, it keeps numbers free for new signings which I expect to arrive once Adomah goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red751 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 I hope ajala isn't involved to be honest, no where near good enough, he's almost 22 as well. Bear in mind that JET is 22 then compare their development. If he isn't pushing to get in the team now then he probably never will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Hev Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 He went with the squad to gillingham and was there in the warmup, obviously there just in case there was an injury in warm up, would imagine hes impressed in training, worked his way into odriscolls thinking and got rewarded with a squad number and being taken to gillingham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djb6162 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 well at least Burns keeps forcing his way into this squad if nothing else http://www.faw.org.uk/news/FAW91756.ink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfair to compare Ajala. Its more or less up to Ajala to prove his worth in his own respect. totally different player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Wales have been dropping for the last year or so" not so 2 years ago wales were ranked 110 (2010) today ranked 46 (july 13) their highest position in recent history (45) in June 13 ????, you have to go back to 1994 to find them ranked higher ! but t be honest i do get your point, but for an 18 year old to representing his country at any level shouldn't be dismissed, in this case its u21, so definitely worth a mention as an 18 year old also Joe Morrell just 16 also a welsh international worth mentioning and i am sure will play alongside wes in a bristol city shirt one day (hopefully) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Just because Brundle is updating Twitter about his number doesn't mean others haven't been given a number. Maybe they're just not updating about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
