Kicking off a special squad number feature. Squad numbers were introduced for the first time in the 1999/2000 season and a generation of Clarets have since put their own special mark on a particular shirt.
Repeating a series by contributor Wallace Chadwick which ran in the on-line Turf matchday magazine during the 2020/21 season, we will be highlighting who wore what and profiling some of those who made their mark at Turf Moor.
We’re kicking off with the number of current captain Ben Mee.
Come in, number 6:
1999-2003 Gordon Armstrong 2003-04 Graham Branch 2004-07 Michael Duff 2007-10 Steven Caldwell 2010-11 Jack Cork 2011-13 Chris McCann 2013- Ben Mee

I'm possibly being bit unfair on him, but I always associate Chris McCann's departure with the beginning of our establishment as a top club once more. His replacement was David Jones, and he was key to our climb back to the top, with Jones in midfield we were a different beast altogether, and here we are today.
