Squad Numbers Announced

Interesting Lewis isn’t in that list yet despite his appearance on the other pages

edit: just seen other thread saying that his profile has disappeared so maybe makes sense
 
Greg back with his number 3

Evans number 9

Whiteman takes Pearo’s number 4

Lewis Leigh with quite a high number for a youth team player. Given he has the most pre season appearances it’s a safe bet he’ll be the youngster we see most

I don't really pay much attention to squad numbers, but I also wondered if him being given number 17 with the rest of the youngsters in the 30s suggests he might be part of the first team this season
 
We need to unload numbers 10, 24, 25 and possibly 32….. I don’t know much about the youngsters.
 
I noticed that Iverson No 21 is left open for him to take up on his return. Also No 12 is free, suppose thats for our New striker when he signs or is it for Jamie Thomas.

Agreed. Leigh with the 17 shirt is a shocker for me. Suggests Frankie really rates him and wants him in the squad.

Do you mean it’s a shock that’s he’s been allocated such a high number given his inexperience or that it’s a grave mistake for him to be considered for first-team football just now?

Haven’t watched much of the pre-season games so don’t really have an opinion on the kid.

The former. Haven't seen nearly enough to assess him as a player, but we tend to give the young lads numbers above 30, so I'm surprised to see him take that shirt.
 
Harrop staying having got the no 10 shirt? Surely if he wasn’t in FMs plans he wouldn’t get that shirt. He’d be in the 30s.
