Sheffieldblue Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 i remember when Argentina gave Ossie Ardiles the number 1 shirt on alphabetical order in a world cup. Seemed odd, a bit like Steve Fletcher wearing number 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingys Ginger Mullet Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 31, 32 and 33 will be regular starters in the first team then! Ryan Galvin going out on loan if he's not been given a number? Hope he does and gets a solid 35 match season under his belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skamp Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I'm surprised they've not made numbers 4 digit to boost income off the fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
