bad shirt number choice...

[Cityisland]

Ive got one. Every player i have had on the back of a city shirt has left shortly after. Ive only had 3. Weah, Barton and Jo. Im a curse to any player if i show my support for them.

 

[Grand Master Ram Rod]

Oh yeah my worst one was Danny Mills 5 years ago ha ha.

ok beat this....
schmeikel then he left
tarnat then he left
james then he left
distin then he left
wright philips then he left
anelka then he left

i have given up having names on the back of my shirts now ans try and have something 'original'

i gave it my best crack...

wright phillips 2 years in a row.. left
anelka for 1 of those seasons...left
flintoff on 1 shirt (god knows why!!) he started getting all those injuries
samaras...left (although i lost that shirt)
barton... went awol then left (i got it to replace the samaras 1)
bianchi... loaned out then left
jo... loaned out
wright-phillips again on the 3rd shirt (hope this doesn't come true again)


i'm pretty proud of that but ive given up and will stick to plain shirts

I've got " B Wright Phillips 42" on the back of Ltd edition yellow 3rd shirt from a couple of years back.

Can't wear it now, which is a shame as it's a smart shirt.

What a twat!

why on earth would you get him on your shirt???

At the time I reckoned he'd break through from the academy and be the next big thing!

My brother got ireland on his in the same year..smug git!

I had "ROCKY 7" on the back of one of the old away tops when it first came out.

He got sold to Chelsea the next day! The wouldnt swap the top either, so I was left walking round with it on for 2 years!!

who was rocky? sorry i think that was before my time

Rocastle RIP

I have got Vassell 12 on my 3rd shirt. The looks they gave me when I asked for that! It's an ongoing joke between me and my mates.

 

[The Blue Goon]

I've had a few.

Rosler 28, Kinkladae 7, Cooke 11 and Samaras 20

Not too bad apart from Samaras

Talking of David Rocastle - does anybody know where I can find youtube or video footage of the amazing touchline turn he did when playing for City. He sort of rolled the ball under his foot and turned?

I remember that.., in front of the main stand as I remember..class
