I immediately thought of Graham Roberts anyone more recent?

Can't think of anyone more recently but I saw Bobby Shearer do it memorably in Gorgieland for 75 minutes. 1 - 3 for the light and speedy blues.

I thought directly on Roberts so I think it was him. I think not long after that teams could put a keeper on the bench.

Yeah very most likely. I recall Terry doing it for Chelsea when Cech and Cudicini both got hurt.

didn't lan Ferguson take over in one game?

Can't recall myself but sure I seen it a few times in pre substitution rules.

As a wee extra to the post does anyone think rules should be changed to allow three substitutes as now and that the keeper be replaced at any time if injured over and above the three?.

I remember big Davie Provan going in goal, Davie Wilson moving to left back and Billy Ritchie going to outside left in a match against the skidmarks.

Also the England v Scotland match at Wembley in 1965 where England more or less ended the match with 9 men due to injuries.

I saw Colin Stein play in goal in a Glasgow Cup semi-final against Queens Park circa 69/70, we won 3-zip at Ibrox. I think Stein took the gloves for the majority of the second half?

Big John Greig made the greatest save ever by an outfield player in the 1973 Scottish Cup final.

 

He wasn't exactly officially the keeper, but his dive and strong left hand turned a powerful Deans shot from around eight yards round the post. The Gas Meter must have been truly impressed.

Pity you weren't at the dinner or you could have asked him.
