Squad Numbers

[we are the bees]

I know this isnt very important but i was just woundering when there going to be annouced??

 

[Edmundo]

It is important as I'm not buying a new shirt until I know what name/number combo to get on the back!

Some clues can be ascertained from the pictures of training on the BFC Web Site

e.g. Myers -> #3

There you go: Rankin -> #9

 

[Edmundo]

I don't reckon what they are wearing in training at the moment has any necessary bearing on what the official numbers will be when they are released.

You mean they'll be expected to
i) wear someone else's kit :smelly:
ii) do some sowing at the weekend?

 

[Edmundo]

Normally they don't get the new kit until the season proper starts.

 

[rebus]

Correct. Squad numbers will be released as soon as they are finalised.

 

[Banana]

Why would Rankin wear O'Connor's old training kit then

 

[Luton Bee]

Makes a change from "when the club can be arsed"!!!

 

[rebus]

Why would Rankin wear O'Connor's old training kit then

He's not and it's not! There are some issues to be sorted out for some of the players not allocated numbers yet.

 

[Banana]

He's not and it's not!

Ah, so Rankin is wearing his new training kit then!

 

[smiffy superbee]

You mean they'll be expected to
do some sowing at the weekend?

Well, the pitch already looks pretty good to me!!lollollol

 

[Claire]

it will be intresting to see which players get what squad numbers. but they generally mix and match in friendlies anyway.

 

[homerbees]

It is important as I'm not buying a new shirt until I know what name/number combo to get on the back!

Me too!

I hopè to get the shirt soon, good job i didn´t get it straight away Steve Hunt was my first choice......

 

[brighton bee]

it wont be possible to get a name on the shirt just yet anyway.i went to get my new shirt today and apparently the bloke who does the names and numbers is away for a few days.

 

[we are the bees]

there still not released it said on the website that the squad is giong to be announced later this week, that message was on the website early last week

 

[Alton Bee]

Are the squad numbers going to be released next Tuesday at the Open Night. When Mr Allen gets to No. 13, he will do the draw for that shirt before carring on with the rest of the squad ????

 

[we are the bees]

Yeah i think it might be then,
Never thought of that!!

 

[MancBee]

Well Tabb had better still be 8 or my shirt's wrong.

 

[Deleted member 2202]

So the number 13 has been drawn, yet still no sign of squad numbers...

 

[we are the bees]

They were'nt announced last night then?

 

[Edmundo]

I think the numbers from Sunday will be used ... thus,

1 Nelson, 4 Talbot, 6 Fitzgerald, 8 Tabb, 9 Rankin, 18 Burton, 26 Salako - can't remember any of the others, I'm afraid. Oh yes, 13 Bates!

 

[we are the bees]

yeah thats what i thought to start off with but why would kev o'connor change from no. 9 to no. 16

 

[Edmundo]

I doubt that Kevin O'Connor was given the responsibility of choosing who wears what number.

 

[W13 Bee]

1 Nelson, 4 Talbot, 6 Fitzgerald, 8 Tabb, 9 Rankin, 18 Burton, 26 Salako - can't remember any of the others, I'm afraid. Oh yes, 13 Bates!

11 Hargreaves, 12 Frampton, 14 Harrold, 15 Rhodes. I think Sodje was 17 :scratch: Somner was demoted to #30

I'm guessing Myers will be #3.

 

[homerbees]

So that would have

1) Nelson
2) Dobbo
3) Myers
4) Talbot
5)
6) Fitzgerald
7) Hutchinson
8) Tabb
9) Rankin
10)
11) Hargreaves
12) Frampton
13) George Bates
14) Harrold
15) Rhodes
16) O'Connor
18) Burton
26) Salako

 

[nocoat]

13) Mr Bater



:bound:

 

[The H]

i'm no31

 

[Boscombe Bee]

I imagine Martin Allen chooses the numbers, generally its not up to the players, unless theres an agreement before hand (maybe Rankin stipulated he should wear 9 when he signed). Also if O'Connor is being seen as a right back/right midfielder then MA may well decide that someone else should have the number 9 shirt, being a strikers number traditionally

 

[Mick.C]

I'm pretty sure Sam Sodje is No.5 as he marked that number on his signature when my little girl got his autograph last night.

 

[Nada Bee]

im pretty sure before the season starts and hunt is gone, Salako will be No. 10.??

 

[Edmundo]

7) Hutchinson

Where did this come from?

 

[larrysigny]

Or maybe they'll all be announced officially at tomorrow's photo call.

 

[Edmundo]

I'm sure the club will let us know "when it sees fit"! lol

 

[Brickie Chap]

Correct. Squad numbers will be released as soon as they are finalised.

I sent them to you yesterday, surely you should have been able to post them on the official site by now



Buck your ideas up mate, plenty of others can do your job

 

[homerbees]

Where did this come from?

Nah its just a guess Ed, did he have number 7 against AFC?

anyway i saw this, added 2 + 2 together and got 5 .....

Bates & 13.

 

[Edmundo]

Bates & 13.

Torn between TABB 8 and SALAKO 26 - the former would be a bit cheaper, of course!

 

[The H]

word of warning

be careful when you tumble dry your new shirt and number...... :blush

 

[Alex]

Not both shirts I hope.

 

[The H]

my red n white one has a lighter no than wot went in

my blue one don't have a dirty big white square on it so it will remain free from extras

 

[Gee Bee]

Bates & 13.

What about using Master Bates!!

 

[Gee Bee]

I thought it was only kids that did that sort of thing.

How about Edmundu 8 and underneath "all the pies"

 

[Trandy]

Do you think they'll be announced today considering the Photo shoot was yesterday????

 

[we are the bees]

i think they will be released about wednesday

 

[Banana]

Does it show the back of their shirts? If not we can assume they're still "Confidential".

 

[ChinaBee]

I guess waiting for Plmmer to agree to wear number 5, bit later in announcing though.
