Probably still sorting out a severance package with him, which may be the cause of the delay.The website article states "Fans will notice that Jonathan Forte is not currently listed amongst the squad numbers. An update on this is expected shortly."
Why?Should be retired for life!
Whilst the circumstances surrounding Stanno's death were tragic, and that he was a very talented player, it doesn't necessarily follow that the number 9 shirt should be retired in perpetuity. He now has a stand named in his honour and his legacy is assured. If we are to start retiring shirts permanently, it should be reserved for the true legends of the Club and for their feats on the pitch. In the case of the No 9 shirt there have been a number of excellent players down the years but only Tony Kellow really comes into this category.Why?
Due to the circumstances of what happened while he was our number 9.
Don't think it should be let out!!
