No Wise or Poyet, maybe they are serious about not playing. Sad

do you reckon they've just given the 'big' players shirt numbers so people can get them on the back of the home shirt when it comes out at the weekend  :?

Seems odd to do it, when we are still [hopefully] planning to signed at least 3 or 4 more players...plus to omit some players as well...

I'm not sure its correct, but when you're playing Football Manager and you're asked to give your squad numbers, you have to give a minimum of 16 numbers - if thats right then maybe thats what Town have done and all the other players can just be added to our squad list when needed!  Cheesy

Isn't that Beckham's number?  Maybe he's a fan.

yeah it is but beckham chose 23 as it was michael jordan's number, maybe weston is an nba fan? Cool

bizarre that we've announced so few squad numbers, don't understand that at all! especially considering wise said he'd have a first team squad of 20 players!

mind you, if we sign the three triallists and this big name player we've got a squad of 20.

ever since beckham opted for the michael jordan number of 23 it seems to have been a big hit with football league players.

yeah like football manager, 16 players have to be given numbers at this stage...were missing out on cash though by people not knowing what number to get for wise and poyet. 4 and 8 are both free so i would asume they would use them...anyone know the number poyet used vs ibiza?

I don't know about Ibiza but I've got a feeling he used to wear no.4 for Chelsea.

This means nothing, because they haven't even allocated Phil Smith a number- I know he hasn't signed a contract yet. I think its jsut football league rules that the club have to submit a squad before a certain date.
