Much of that has been down to how Carlos and the team have played and have approached their football but they are here because of the foundations that the chairman has put in place to enable us to progress. Strange squad numbers and a kit that I am not overly keen on (out has attracted record sales) are not much this much of an issue when put in perspective. Less talk. You're 4. You answer to 4, you address yourself as 4, you have 24 hours to tell friends and family and change passport etc. Ok 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bywater had a good reason to choose his some years ago, maybe this is just how it's going, rather than a conspiracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone asked Bullen about it on twitter and he said the numbers have nothing to do with Carlos or the players choosing them so it is likely to have been the chairmans decision.

Halifax Owls Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 This is football no.......... I got my pinstripes through the post today, new (sic) badge, bizarre squad numbers. I'm just looking forward to a big match on Sunday, watching a decent team and decent football. If it's logic your looking for your watching the wrong sport......just embrace it, it's far easier.

DeeeeeJ Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I'm still completely baffled that fans are whinging about this. I'm so glad this is the sort of stuff 'fans' are having to complain about now. At least it shows we're a decent side in a good position. Thanks Mr Chansiri. Some of us still appreciate you.

Also Lee etc. The players didn't choose their own numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Be good if someone could best answer the reply that has the squad numbers on. Would save me from trawling through 20 pages to find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birley Owl 1867 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 It's the chairman's decision. He is the one who sends it off to the league after all. Players can obviously suggest a number for themselves but it's not his decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see you getting much of a game with number 5318008 but at least you have more chance than McGugan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
