The club have announced the squad numbers for next season. Do we read anything into Stevenson's outlying squad number?

It's the same as his squad number from last season, so I would say no, interesting that Reid and Turnbull have numbers tho.

No George Thomas listed, must definitely be off to leicester then.

5 gaps in the numbers - is that 5 more perm signings to come in or 5 loans to fill?

Its like Haynes, hes kept 24 so maybe they just like that number and robins has let them keep them

Number 9 as well!

Also interesting Jones has gone from JJ10 to JJ11.

Sayoud is a strange one, is he actually a real life player as he doesn't seem to be anywhere near yet.

But they've both gone to quite high numbers. I'd expect both of them to be gone or not feature much at all

Reid and Turnbull being shunted from starting 11 numbers to high 20s and up is suggestive. Stuart Beavon's name has a full stop at the end, that's doing my head in.

Hopefully the filling of the number 9 doesn't mean no more strikers. 12 has probably been reserved for Moorhouse? Wonder which number Pearson will wear if he signs.

69

Also interesting to see Burge as #1 - I had felt that O'Brien would be first choice (not that squad numbers mean as much as they used to - RCC was number 1 for most of TM's time whilst Burge still had #1 as his understudy)

Telegraph got it wrong again?? Seems they started at 1 and ran out of numbers rather than missing the few out in the middle!!

and why are 15% of our squad called Jordan
is it because we usually play like a load of tits

Turnbull and Reid suggests that if they stay they can be part of MR plans, or is it because they are under contract unlike Thomas?

Yeah, it will be because contractually they are still with us. Thomas isn't.

Reckon we could line-up 1-11 on the opening day which must be a rare occurrence these days in football?

Burge

Grimmer
Willis
McDonald
Stokes

Doyle
Kelly

Vincenti
McNulty
Jones

Biamou

He wouldn't be included in our squad listing as he isn't under contract.

The no9 shirt is a big one for me, suggests he's very happy with Biamou and don't have a more experienced striker in line currently on his target list.

I'm not saying no more strikers will arrive tho. I do hope we get a natural proven target man tho with Moorhouse too.
That will give us a full compliment of striking options

Turnbull has 6 days and counting to seal a move under his own powers or then it becomes an opportunity for CCFC to require a fee for him.

If Turnbull doesn't leave I can see him being apart of the squad, same with Reid.

It's been quiet about him having talks, haven't seen the usual rumours of other fans either saying he is in talks with them.

Play in 1 to 11 now we are in the tinpot leagues!

Wouldn't read too much into the squad numbers. Don't think this generation of players are really bothered about 1-11.

It's been very quiet, I would imagine that if anything is to be done it will be closer to the 31 July.

Does kind of suggest there are 5 gaps he'd still like to fill.

Moorhouse did not get a number. He looks very useful, I hope we sign him.

The stuff of nightmares when you see No 1 L Burge!:nailbiting:

Yeah shame that. We didn't give Messi a number either

I wonder what number Baker will be given?
