Well established in other sports, I’ve always wondered why football hasn’t done this? Hopefully they do it like cricket and make actual caps, and idk we could like set #602 on fire or something and use the ashes for a trophy
I was like: is Campbell 602? Yep, Campbell is 602. I don’t think I could identify any other team’s most hated player…
I love this kind of thing – hope we do it too at some point
Yeah players seem to really value and appreciate it as well. Arsenal include it in their presentation vids, and players always look really happy about it. Cricket and rugby have been doing it for decades and players have spoken out about how proud they felt and how it was a real acknowledgement of what they had accomplished to get there.
Interesting idea for a club with Jewish history to start giving people unique numbers.
Just to save anyone time if they care. Judas is 602. 666 was actually taken by Christian Ziege nine years later.
For a second I thought you were referring to some Brazilian dude who had Judas as his footballing name
He’d be a great signing for Arsenal, he’d really help Jesus get on the end of crosses
Why? As What relation does Judas have to the numbers?
He means Sol Campbell.
Who’s won the double, when the scum from the Lane won fuck all. Again.
Amazing that you’ve used the word ‘scum’ but it wasn’t directed at Sol Campbell, who has proven himself to be one of the scummiest people in Premier League history. Life of an Arsenal fan, I suppose.
Pretty cool.
Would be even cooler if there was a hierarchy like The Stonecutters.
