Dawson included in squad numbers

Last updated : 21 June 2002 By Luke Thornhill
In the list of numbers sent to Iron-Bru.net this afternoon by the club Dawson keeps the number three shirt, although the club also confirmed to us that he has not yet signed a deal to stay.

Jamie McCombe, James Cotterill, Wayne Graves and Matthew Sparrow have all been elevated into the first eleven numbers.

McCombe takes the number four shirt, with Nathan Stanton switching to the number two following the departure of Carl Bradshaw.

Cotterill takes the number six shirt vacated by Stuart Thom, while Matty Sparrow takes over Nigel Pepper's underused number seven.

Wayne Graves will wear the number eight recently worn by Lee Hodges.

New signing Paul Wheatcroft is handed shirt number twelve, Lee Ridley gets Peter Morrison's number seventeen while his younger brother Steve will wear number nineteen if he makes the first team in his first year as a pro.

Russ Wilcox keeps shirt number eighteen, but is unlikley to feature on the playing field as he warms to his off the field duties as assistant manager.

Once again, the number thirteen shirt is left empty.
