The club will put anything on the back of your shirt, although they are wary of words that they feel may be Spanish profanities.

I meant in an official capacity bocs.

I've got the papers in to get my name changed officially to Monster Knob though...so irrelevant question really.

Will he be allowed to be known simply as Ricardo though? I thought there was some kind of anti-nickname on the back of shirt in the football league?

It's ok in the Premier League. Hernandez at Manure has 'Chicharito' on his shirt.

I think Ricardo will be accepted. I could be wrong.
 
Ssn reported this as a loan.

Another loan...

At this rate half the squad will leave at the end of the season.

Last load of regular first team football was back in 08/09 and Betis didn't even bother giving him a number this season.

I'm in Silverfox's 'hmmmm' camp.

Me too. his last contract had less than 6 months to go and they let him go. Need we say anymore.

He last played regularly, 20 games, in 2008-09 and only Cup games since and as mentioned not given any squad number this season and they made him train with the Pepe Mel-led squad.

Still he is there as backup and may make Weale keep on his toes.
 
I wonder if he will choose a silly squad number like 88 or 77 - alot of foreign keepers do this dont they..................

1997 - just before going to Madrid, I decided I wanted BOCADILLO on the back of my shirt. They printed it, together with the number 97. Just as the assistant was going to give me the shirt, there was a discussion between a couple of people behind him - and suddenly the shirt was snatched away.

They told me I couldn't have the shirt without at first giving a reason. I told them that they had a slight problem because the shirt was already mine, having been bought about a month or so earlier - and that I was blowed if I was going to risk allowing them to take the letters off. The manager was called who told me that it was believed that the word was likely to be provocative. I told him that I didn't think it was and asked him what he thought it meant. He said that I knew full well what it meant. I helpfully told him that as far as I was concerned it was just a collection of letters that looked vaguely Spanish.

There was a bit of an impasse while they offered me a brand new shirt and I turned their offer down on the grounds that I already had a almost new shirt and I wanted it back. One of the throng of staff then had a brainwave and decided to phone somebody who he thought would have an English-Spanish dictionary.

Whoever he rang knew what 'bocadillo' meant without even looking it up and he came off the phone, reporting that it meant 'sandwich'. I declared, "**** me, that's a coincidence - that's where I live". Shirt in bag - me out of shop very quickly, whistling innocently.
 
But they never batted an eyelid when I got the Spanish for 'Spunk-covered Whore' printed on mine.
