fairweather Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 I guess so bit I am confused. Does that mean Flint stays and Frankie is no1 with no Ripley? or squad numbers mean nothing in which case why give Pato 20 and leave Hegeler in the long grass.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Squad numbers don't mean a thing. Too much is read in to them. Some players have a liking for a particular number. I don't know, but this might be the case with Pack. A regular starter (as he should be) but has always worn 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Orns Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 GoN wasn't 30 in the list that I got on twitter? Baker takes 6 then Pretty sure Hegeler always wears 13, Golbourne obviously has that here, so took 31. It was explained at the time. Couldn't give a toss what number they were. Flint wearing 4 and playing centre half does annoy me though. Def midfielder number is that..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selred Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 O'Neil was 6 when I saw the list earlier. Must be for Baker now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Unlike last season no numbers have been allocated to Arnie Garita and De Girolamo, guess that means the latter is going out on loan and the former could well be on his way permanently, I think.

Thank God someone else saw it, I mentioned it on the Baker thread and was then corrected that he was wearing 30. Thought I was going mad.....

Does that mean Flint stays and Frankie is no1 with no Ripley? or squad numbers mean nothing in which case why give Pato 20 and leave Hegeler in the long grass. Lots of players like sticking to a number once it is allocated, so I guess Paterson and Hegeler (like Đurić and Engvall) simply wanted to hold on to their current ones. Just because Frankie wears 1 doesn't mean any new keeper won't play ahead of him. Also we do often re-cycle numbers, Derrick Williams started last season as our no.5 then he left for Blackburn and Ekstrand wore it. If Flint goes then any August arrival could take number 4.

View from the Dolman Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Gary O'Neil is now listed as wearing 28 and he's said this on Twitter too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalcub Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 More than happy at baker coming in but I fear that means ones going out going to flint obvs , at least signing a replacement first makes sense for once !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Orns Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Galvin wearing 9 and playing on the wing....seem to remember he used to do that quite a lot, Villa often wore 5 as well One sub as well. The good old day, Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 I, for one, am not keen on squad numbers. It should be league rules that it is 1-11, with the subs in sequence. How else can an idiot know for sure who is left back?? tfj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can then slag them/LJ for not having a clue when they're out of position. No retconning by the manager post match then. I like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good old day, Dave! Donnie Gillies used to wear 9 and play right back for us in the late 70s, albeit after he had been converted there from a striker.
