Baker - No Squad Number Is A Misunderstanding

Last updated : 04 August 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Carl Baker has written that not being given a squad number by Coventry City was a misunderstanding.

Baker, who has a year left on his City contract, was left out of the players given a squad number last week, something which sparked furious reactions amongst some of the City support.

The midfielder has now written on his Facebook page: "The support I've received over the last few weeks has been overwhelming and quite emotional to be honest.

"July has been a very tough month for me, I was obviously disappointed to have the captaincy taken off me but now believe that there was a misunderstanding over my squad number.

"Am not sure where my future will be but if I do stay at Cov I believe I will get a squad number.

"I've still got a slight shin injury and that's why I've missed games but have only been treated the way I would expect if I was still part of the plans.

Hopefully over the next few weeks I will know where I will be playing my footy this season."
