Dean West retains the number 2 shirt
The numbers vacated by the six players who left at the end of the season after being released have been left unallocated although the numbers 33 and 34 which were used by David Johnson and Paul Gascoigne respectively will still be used.

Those two numbers along with 32 have been given to the three players who have completed their scholarship and become full time professionals namely Earl Davis, Andrew Leeson and Andrew Waine.

Although he has not signed a new deal with the club the number 2 shirt has been allocated once again to Dean West an significantly the number 31, used by Marlon Beresford last season, remains unallocated. Beresford is currently back at Burnley and training with the club in the hope of winning a contract having been released by Middlesbrough.

In total the squad currently stands at 25 players and as a quick reminder the full list of squad numbers for the 2002/03 season are as follows:
