Striker allocated squad number

Last updated : 13 July 2002 By Kop Talk News


Kop Talk understands that youngster Neil Mellor has been handed his first squad number by the club as he takes another step nearer the first team.

Although the management and coaching staff will continue to protect him and not rush his progression, he has been handed the '33' shirt.

Meanwhile the versatile Stephen Warnock has been handed the '35' shirt.

The news hasn't been released or confirmed by the club as yet so don't rush out and buy any shirts and get their names added if you are fans of the duo.
