plymouthram Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Just a question that someone might know the answer to. Why does George Thorne have a very high shirt/squad number ? We don't even have 34 first team squad players. Sensible replies please, I am just curious to know the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It was his number last season, and the one before. Continuity and a desire not to confuse Boycie, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouRams Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It's his Buckos bonus ball number, requested it on his shirt as Buckos a bugger when it comes to paying. ITK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannable Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I think McClaren's loan signings all had numbers from 30-ish onwards - Dawkins 32, Wisdom 33, Thorne 34, Bamford 35.I'd imagine he'd have just chosen to stick with 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It's his average rating out of 10 per game. Some players pick dates (3/4/xxxx), some keep numbers they've always had from youth, some don't care, some have lucky numbers.Bet if you asked him on that twitter he'd tell you. Just don't say anything cringey like "Never leave George, you're a legend and I love you". Or ask him to wish someone happy birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'm ITK on this, it's his average number of sexual partners per year, which is some going seeing as he's celibate from pre-season to lifting the trophy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
