Vacant 12's.

Vacant 12's.

by Guest Thu Jun 14, 2012 5:38 pm

In recognition of their fans some clubs never issue a number "12" squad number. Was wondering which clubs do this and if your club does this.

I know of a few clubs who have retired the number or don't use it:

Bayern
Lazio
Fenerbahce
Chivas
Portsmouth
Flamengo
Norwich City

and I think Rangers recently retired the number too in hopes of distracting the Jelas of the world.

Rumours going around Brisbane are about to retire it to the fans. Hope they do.

Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven both have 12th man.

Ajax has chosen not to do so, but do have 14 retired in honor of Cruijff, although he would personally much rather see the best footballer at the club wear it (Eriksen at the moment)

Those are number retired because of a player's accomplishments and commitment. This is more about a number being retired or not used as a tribute to a club's fans.
