Beckham is no. 23

jonno

Beckham was unveiled today with the number 23 shirt. I wonder did he choose it or if he was just given a vacant number. If he chose it I wonder what his reasoning was behind it. (BTW what ages are his kids - wouldn't happen to be 2 and 3 by any chance - just specualtion)

Emboss

If David is reading this If jono s theory is correct he will be changing to number 34 next year

(just to save him and hour on the maths )

Beckham wanted the No.7 shirt but the current holder of that number would not give it up.
Real Madrid to knock Man Utd out of Champions League next season will a Beckham free kick in the last minute! Whats the bets!

I have a feeling they told Beckham that his no.23 jersey was related to Michael Jordan's legendary squad no. just to keep him happy cause its not quite no.7 or any where near it!!

OMG so possible...nasty thought...

And Beckham was given that number I heard cos it has something to do with numerology and cos its that of Michael Jordan and he wants to break into the American Market...

Thats the biggest load of s**t they only reason people think that is because some very stupid facts came out about the number 23.
Did it ever occur to any1 that by giving him number 23 when people go to get his name on there jersey they will have to pay a good bit more for another number,why would they give him a single numbe when they can exploit him

It has to do with Michael Jordan's number .... SFX [Beckham's agents] are agents for Michael Jordan too!!!

Probably to link the 2 so Beckham can try and break the American market again on the back of it.

Deffo a Micheál Jordan thing. Real asked him what number he'd like. He got confused, so they told him that Jordan used to wear no. 23, so David said ok..eh..what was the number again?
