CDMullins 436 Posted August 9, 2011 [quote user="LeJuge"][quote user="CDMullins"]Im fairly sure PL as nothing to do with which player has which squad number! Think some of you hvae been playing too much Football Manager[/quote]Of course the manager can change the squad numbers, why do you think Steven Smith and Cody McDonald no longer have one? Bryan Gunn changed a lot of shirt numbers. [/quote] Garbage! Why would PL give a toss who wears what number?? Someone upstairs might as a marketing ploy, but PL no way! Steve Smith and Cody dont have one because they have been told they are not required, not because PL sat down with a piece of player a went through the numbers!

Thorny 0 Posted August 9, 2011 Huckerby was #6, traditionally a center backs number - was that a big deal back then? Nope! It''s just a number Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Essex_Canary 6 Posted August 11, 2011 Hucks was #6 cos when he signed it was available after the previous wearer David Nielsen disappeared back to Denmark 3 weeks into the season. Nielsen had #6 because when he originally joined on loan it had been made available by Matt Jackson''s move to Wigan.God I remember some useless stuff...
