There are a total of 1985 players in the City Ground's database.
Of those 1985 players, there are 1902 that made an appearance in any game (including friendlies, wartime etc.).
If only competitive games are counted, then the number is 1148 players who made an appearance.
There are 39 players who only made the bench and never came on.
That means we have 44 players who made no appearances for us, but they're still in the list here. (Note: 10 of them were bought at the start of the 2022-23 season and never used).
