Sorry if this has already been posted, but the NEP has just announced the squad go into training including McGildrick (number 17) and Adebola NUMBER 9!!! Is this not Tyson's number? :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Sure it's not just a training top number? As they rarely match up with actual shirt numbers.

I heard he caught the number 10 and got off at the side of TBI...

In all honesty though, its a squad number... does it really matter ??
 
I can confirm that Tyson will be wearing the number 3 shirt for next season, to commemerate the longest number of weeks he has gone without getting injured.

Adebolas full name is Bamberdele Adebola :D

I thought most strikers loved the number 9 shirt? I would have thought if he got it taken off him and it was given to a lanky old bench guy he'd be pretty pissed off.
Cant we just give him a silly one in the 40s?

You're thinking of Vinderloo which has a different number of syllables!

It is well known that squad numbers are not released until about 2 weeks before the start of the season. We always get players wearing tops with various numbers, it doesn't mean they are going to be that number...

Ah was worth a try.

It's a shame there isn't a diet Vindaloo, it would have made things a tad easier.

Wasn't McGoldrick number 17 at Southampton last year? Maybe it's his preferred number like Bennett and 29?

Also, I'd say it was clever marketing from Mark Arthur. Not many kids will want Adebola on their back whereas I'd suspect quite a few will want McGoldrick with him being the biggest (in value) signing so far. By giving him a two digit number on his shirt he is increasing the amount of money we are making on shirt printing.

Well done Mark Arthur, please don't go to Man Utd. I know they must be looking at you.

Yup.
But I get it now!!
Tyson, 5 letters, two digit number...
Anderson, 8 letters, we could give him a lower number!
£££££££ ;)

Now you're getting it. I'd put Anderson on two numbered shirt still, he'll be quite popular.

Infact we should consult the FA to see if our players nine and below can wear 01, 02, 03, 04 etc... That'll surely fund a premiership push.

They're training shirts not squad numbers. Have a search for last years pre season training shots and see for yourself they don't all reflect shirt numbers.

Also 1-9 is 01-09, check back through the thread if you need to know why.

If the traning tops are anything to go by and i think they are then maybe Gunter or any other right back will not be purchased...??

Looks like adebola's got 9 and tysons switched to 11, leaving anderson with 7 and then leaving perch without a number?

Wilson had 6 on in the website, leaving 2 free and im guessing that's for perch? Maybe Billy sees his future there seeing as he banged on about it alot last season? Chambers still had four. I might be taking too much into it but you never know...just a thought?

Or, as loads of others have said, the training numbers bear no reflection to the squad numbers whatsoever. :-*
