Things you don’t see anymore in football

I’m old enough to remember only one substitute per team, though not that old that I can recall the time, when none was allowed.

I can. In those days an injured player would continue on the pitch, unless it was so serious he couldn't even walk. Usually put out on the left wing, or sometimes centre forward for some strange reason. In fact Harry Dowd famously had to do that once for City..........and scored. :-)
 
Seem to remember seeing Blues with t shirts with all the away fixtures listed on them saying City on tour or something like that…

In the King’s debut for Bury, I believe.
