A Conversation for h2g2 Fantasy Football League
Virtual Supporters' Club membership
Ormondroyd Started conversation Oct 14, 2001
At the request of Old Uncle Zarniwoop, I've decided to compile a membership list for The Virtual Supporters' Club, complete with squad numbers for the members! The membership list will be displayed on the VSC page in about a fortnight, when I next upgrade the page.
I imagine that most of you who play h2g2 Fantasy Football sometimes visit the Virtual Supporters' Club, especially given the great advertising that Gedge has given it here! So if you'd like to be included in the VSC squad, please let me know. At the moment, all squad numbers except 1 and 7 are available!

Hi...
Is number 14 available? I used to play right full back when I was younger, but the number 2 shirt was too small, so I got 14....
Best wishes
Otto.

Could I have number 33? It's my favourite number, you see.
It all dates back to a GCSE English class about 4 years ago, where I had been trying to remember something that I had forgotten (It had nothing to do with the class, it's just that I find Shakespeare tedious so I liked to think of other stuff to occupy my mind) and I suddenly thought "Yes, 33, that's right. Glad I've remembered that."
Unfortunately, I couldn't remember what it was that i was trying to remember, so I had the number 33 with nothing to relate it to. I've spent the last 4 years trying to think what it might have been but I still don't know (any suggestions?)
So, if I could have 33, I'd be very grateful.

I suppose number 42 has gone by now? Actually thinking of it who would want such a high number. Surely it just shows that the manager thinks you've got two left feet
So I leave my squad number to your discretion

Can I have 10 please in honour of the greatest player I have seen in an Arsenal shirt (my skills are at the other end of the scale).

Can I have number 4 please?

Gedge, Otto, Egon and Ardzil - those numbers are yours!
GreyDesk - I imagine you'd want a number traditionally associated with a left position. But 3, 10 and 11 have gone. So is number 6 OK?
Nitpicker - sorry, mate, but number 10 has already gone in the other thread on this topic at the VSC page. But I can offer you number 9, the traditional ace striker's shirt number! Is that OK?
2, 5 and 8 are the other 'first XI' positions available.

I've posted this on the other thread just in case, but can I have the number 8 shirt please? If that's gone I'll have 17. Thank you!

Thanks for the offer but 9 does not have any significance for me and any other number I want has gone already. I am currently trying to think of another one but the only one I can come up with is 185 (the current Arsenal total scoring record but that is RIDICULOUS)
P.S. Did he current owner of the no 10 shirt ACTUALLY post his request before me (both show 2 days ago at this moment)?

I'm willing to swap my number 10 (I think thats my number anyway) for number 2 if you want, I always did feel safer in defense, though this is getting confusing .

Thanks a million Gedge - there is just NO other number still available that has ANY significance for me and DB10 is just the very best player I remember seeing play live (for Holland as well as Arsenal )
