Goalkeeper On Target Not Once But Twice
Before dug-outs were redesigned to make room for the ridiculous number of substitutes in the present-day game, the concept of outfield players taking their turn as emergency goalkeepers was fairly commonplace. Bobby Gould was handed the shirt by Gary Pierce for the dying minutes of Wolves' Second Division farewell at Bolton in 1977, Dave Wagstaffe famously donned a green jersey several sizes too big for him after Phil Parkes had been sent off against Albion in 1967, Kenny Hibbitt had a go in goal at Tottenham in the early 1980s and, in more recent times, Tom Bennett (at home to Albion) and Dean Richards (at home to Stoke) have each done a stint between the posts.
