What Does Being 5 & 6 Mean? by SPIFF(m): 7:31am On Jun 17, 2020
Firstly pardon me because I am not certain which section to post this but I crave for the indulgence of the Admin to move it to the right section.

There's this popular saying that I want to know its origin. What it stands for. Why those specific numbers.For instance.. Tolu and Dayo have been friends from childhood. They are like 5 & 6. What does 5 and 6 means. Why 5&6 and not 8&9?

Just being curious.

5&6 is an incorrect statement.. it was originated by football lovers considering the way Central backs are standing together but the mistake is dat the positions are wrongly numbered as 5&6 where as it is 4&5 ... the position called standing 4 is the correct central 6 ..
So it is 4&5 not 5&6

In Europe, DM is 6. In England it's 4. Europe won the battle and everyone (apart from English colonies) call it 6.
