Title: Squad numbers
Post by: Scooter on July 22, 2021, 06:36:10 pm
Anyone know when the squad numbers are going to be announced? I’m going to buy a new shirt and trying to decide whether to get Rowe or Cukur on the back

Wouldn't personally go with a random kid loanee on my shirt that could be gone in January especially over a club favourite.  :laugh:

Will he even have "Cukur" on the back of his shirt? A lot of Turkish players wear their forename and go by that.

Yeah this is what I have been toying with. I’m a big fan of Tommy but excited about a goal scoring prospect. I suppose if he does start scoring regularly Watford might recall him in January

Rowe seems to be wearing #10 in the friendlies. My OCD is doing backflips at the thought of a left back wearing #10. Nearly as bad as when Sharp had #5 playing up front

Oddly enough, if my memory is correct, Sharpie scored more goals wearing number five for us than when he wore number ten.
Might be wrong though.

I just hope the numbers are white and not black on the back of the shirts can't make the black ones out

Adam Lockwood, primarily a centre half, wore #11 throughout his time with Rovers, including in the play-off final at Wembley!

Surely you mean your CDO is doing backflips...?

That was the another one that immediately sprang to mind! Borderline sociopathic.
