Inspector Lestrade Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Stuff and nonsense should be 1 - 11 and the subs should wear Sub1, Sub 2, Sub 3 Just don't know where it's all going to end up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubaiowl Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 The delay was due to Chansiri wanting to dictate who wore what number, which has predictably upset quite a few players!! The official numbers for this season were still being argued over the weekend, about who would get the final say!! The final decision was made yesterday!! Just another spanner for you, get used to not having big stripes or hardly any type of stripes, Chansiri does not like Stripes!! Hence the small amount of white on the Home Shirt!! At least we are staying Blue I suppose!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy insisted Bannan was 41 last season, I don't think it's beyond the realms of possibility that he was trying to have his say in what numbers he wanted some players to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Hopefully Fletcher and Hooper will be 9 & 10. Always think first choice strikers should be those numbers, guess I'm old fashioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Runner Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I always thought the Chairman and Manager chose the squad numbers anyway. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky and favourite Numbers!! They were refusing to change as in contracts!! I was in one of the conversations regarding not liking Stripes, hence little white! Contemplating Hoops for Anniversary, but only a slight chance, being discussed already for change of manufacturer! Only post every now and again so don't get in a problem, if people don't want to know info from me that's fine I will stop posting interesting internal info!! Quite a few people are really upset at the internal situation and changes/management (Not inc Carlos) thought people would like to know that its not all hunky dory as people think!! My mistake, I will go again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any do, it'll be because they are fringe squad players and have been numbered accordingly. I also know that part of the reason for squad number delays was actually due to waiting for signings to be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
