Oxford United's new goalkeeper Hubert Busby Junior has been handed the No 13 shirt and probably feels he's already been plagued by bad luck.
Jimmy Glass had the option of the shirt but he told United that he didn't want it because it had been unlucky for him in the past.
Busby's move to Oxford from his last club, Caldas Sport Clube, was fraught with problems and it took almost a month to get international clearance through.
After countless phone calls, Hubert decided to return to Portugal and chase the Portuguese FA and club saying that he was being treated unfairly.
His first appearance came for the reserves at Swindon on Wednesday but he didn't have the happiest of times, feeling he was fouled for Swindon's first goal and slipping as he cleared which led to their third.
He may soon be asking for a different squad number
