Quoted from diehardmariner
16 vacated by Alex Hunt who goes for 29 occupied by Ryan Taylor for the last two years, again probably a personal preference.

I'm gonna guess with Conteh that it's a case of 4+2=6 in the Ivan Zamorano 1+8 style, easier than fighting Luke Waterfall for the No 6 I guess...


Alex Hunt was number 29 at Sheffield Wednesday.

Re: Conteh. He was 45 at Watford, 10 at Braintree (loan), 37 at Middlesbrough & 42 at Gateshead (loan).

Against Rochdale (home) last season we had 10 players start with squad numbers between 1 & 11. Only 5 was missing, with Niall Maher (31) playing.

Charlton did the same in the ‘90s. I’m fairly sure Stuart Balmer wore the number 1 shirt against Town in the Ivano era.

Didn’t Scotland have an odd system based on number of appearances?

I remember Ally McCoist wearing something odd like number 4.

Hunt confirms it's his birthday and the number he made his debut with.
