Premiership...With Half a Team?

As Adrian Boothroyd continues to get stick for the sacking of Nigel Gibbs in the local press, and we marvel at his optimism at being able to get Watford into the Premiership, you could be forgiven for missing news that the players' new shirt numbers have just been announced.

I hate to be the one who has to point it out, but aren't we a couple of players short here?

1 Alec Chamberlain
2 James Chambers
3 Jordan Stewart
4 Brynjar Gunnarsson
5
6 Jay Demerit
7 Martin Devaney
8 Gavin Mahon
9
10 Paul Devlin
11
12 Lloyd Doyley
13
14 Dominic Blizzard
15 Ashley Young
16 Richard Lee
17 Jamie Hand
18 Hameur Bouazza
19 Anthony McNamee
20 Alhassan Bangura
21 Toumani Diagouraga
22 Junior Osborne
23 Adrian Mariappa
24
25 Neil Cox
26 Jermaine Darlington

...

Now, if we can get to the Premiership with half a team (and one striker), I will be impressed. Perhaps he knows something we don't...put your shirt on it.
