Squad numbers announced

[whitlock]

Highly doubt squad numbers has anything to do with transfers, its just a number.

[lildave3]

Nobody has 24 this year?! Outrage.

[anri22]

Maybe number 6 is for Hebib?

[thybluefox]

...or because nobody wanted number six.

Would DJ be given a squad number at all if he was about to leave the club? I'm sure there are a few people out there who will run out tomorrow morning to get "Campbell 32" printed on the back of their new home/away shirt. Seems very unfair if he's about to depart

[Bernie's Love Child]

now squad numbers have been announced all we need is the sponsor to be decided and we'll be looking like a proper football club!

Squad numbers are mainly just a number but they mean something to an extent.

Obviously the players given number 1-11 are expected to be key players. DJ being 32 doesn't mean anything in this case though. Dickov was 22 for 2-3 years and he was a key player. I think Brian Deane was given the number 20 something when he played 30 odd games in Division 1 with Dickov wasn't he? Number 27 I think.

Most of those numbers are the same as last year, with only Gallagher moving up to a vacant number and for some odd reason Tunchev moving to number 3 from 5. Squad numbers mean next to nothing, wasn't DJ something like 32 last season in the spells he was here? If they actually meant anything I'm sure Berner would have taken the number 3 shirt.

[VampLCFC]

Wasn't DJ 23? why not just give him that number again? you never know, maybe for some reason he's requested number 32??

[Jimmy]

33?

or

14 20 21 22 23 24 ...

[Walshy5]

Its probablly his overall goals target for the season

[andy_croydz]

DJ scored 32 and 33 goals respectively for Yeading in 03-04 and 04-05, could be a reason for 32? Then again.. Maybe that has sod all to be do with it

[STUHILL]

That list just shows how much more work needs to be done in the transfer window. We are looking weaker than last seasons squad. I hope to see 3-4 players come in soon, especially if DJ does go.

Morrison, King or Berner will cost a lot to have on your shirt.....

DJ's not going is he Bert? have you heard anything? I understand if you don't want to share it with me.

Apologies, I eagerly await the theory Walshy5 comes up with using the numbers that haven't been used.

[Bert]

He's still our player at the minute. But that could change in the next few days. He could be here at the start of the season, he might not. The odds are more in favour of him going to be honest.

Just to add, maybe Dj's trying to copy becks.... Becks wore 23, and then 32. .

ahh right, thanks for sharing that.. sounds like he's a gonner then <_<

[Tilley]

DJ should have been given number 10, the captains armband and a new three year deal.

[Bert]

Fully agree with you there DMT.

[Ric Flair]

Fully agree with you there DMT.

Berty, you get my message pal?

[sdb]

1st no i looked for was DJ. for me, 32 says, he's almost certainly going.

[Bert]

Working away mate, so I can only get on here on my phone and it doesn't show that i've got messages unless I go in and check. Will have a butchers now mate.

[Guest Bilo]

Clutching at straws but a high shirt number doesn't necessarily mean Sousa won't give him much game time. Shefki Kuqi for example wore number 42 last season and was pretty much an ever present in the Swansea side. As I say though, just straw clutching.

[Heart-Shaped Fox]

Maybe his number matches to how many goals he plans on scoring?
