Got to thinking.

BBD coming back for his 3rd spell. He will have to wear a 3rd different number - #11, #20 and #???

So who else has had multiple numbers for us?

Sharp - #28, #24, #10

Beattie (the James variety) - #6, #9, #10

Cotterill- #12, #4 🤪 #11

Cannon - #28, #7, #9

Has anybody had over 3 numbers ? 🤔
 



I love this kind of geekiness.

Brian Deane - how many numbers did he go through?

Jagielka too.
Jags wore 40 (99/00), 21 (00/01 to 01/02), 17 (02/03 to 03/04), 6 (04/05 to 06/07) and 15 (19/20 to 20/21).

Deane will likely be fewer owing to the lack of squad numbers in those days.
 
Montgomery - #36, #22, #12, #4. #17... then back to #4, then back to #17, then back to #4

Bloody hell. Why?

Once you’re in the starting 11 surely you cling on to it like Kate Winslet in Titanic?

I can’t go back to 17 now
 
Has an outfield player ever worn 1? Any number seems to go these days.

During the warm up before the Northampton v Blades League Cup 1st leg match in September 1990. True story!

In the Blades line up at the back of the programme the players were given the wrong numbers and had Bob Booker as the number 1. When our players came out of the tunnel for the warm up, Bob Booker had the keeper jersey with number 1 on his back and he was practising in goal stopping the shots from going into the net. Very funny!

Osvaldo Ardiles wore the number 1 shirt for Argentina in the 1982 World Cup. He was number 2 in the 1978 World Cup, Norberto Alonso (who scored the first goal for River Plate against us) was number 1. The numbers were given by surnames in alphabetical order

Cotterill #4 and Beattie #6 should never be allowed to happen. And Cannon #9 - only joking Tommy lad; one goal per game if we take just the last game as a sample size!

Remember when Chansiri picked the pigs numbers?

He gave GK #1 then their number 2 GK... erm... #2 🤪
