Rose 21 Ring 21 mmm Ring-a-Ring-a-Roses.


Interesting. This may suggest a full season loan or sale?

From that we can infer that we are in the market for a first choice left back and centre back. No number 4 which would indicate a holding midfielder/defender.

They've probably just sloppily forgotten to change Rose's from last year

I still dont understand why Whitehouse is No. 10 when he isn't a "No. 10" if you know what I mean. IIRC he was No. 4 at Lincoln.

We can have a striker wear number 3 and a defender wear number 9. All I care about is what they produce on the pitch.

That's like saying 20 is double number 10. It's squad numbers and nowadays bears little reflection on position.

I agree! I couldn't care one jot nor tittle what number a player has on his shirt as long as he does the business. It's a bit like the " what coloured socks should the players wear " scenario - just insignificant trivia. I go to watch a football game not a fashion parade or an exercise in numerology.

Well then call me old fashioned if you like...

Reminds me of the time when Edgar Davids was poncing around with a 1 on his back.

I’m just glad we didn’t have squad numbers when I played local league.


In fact, in honour of me when I finally hung up my boots, they retired the number ‘12’ shirt 😄


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
