Thank you do you know of unused subs at all ?

[Grumpypants]

Sorry I can't name the unused subs, the information does not provide them.

[Bluebird54]

Hi, according to reports in the Leicester Mercury and the Scotsman the subs were as follows;
8/11/72 Norwich (Cheesley and Cawston, Cheesley replaced Anderson 88mins.
Leicester (Joplin and Jayes, Joplin replaced Manley 75 mins)

24/10/72 Leicester (Partridge replaced Weller 52)
Norwich (Blair replaced Stringer, Blair was injured with 10mins to go so down to 10 men.
The reports only show one sub, presumably the other one was a goalkeeper.

13/09/1972 Dundee (Knowles and Smith)
Norwich (Keelan and Self)
27/9/1972 Blair and Hansbury
Dundee (Allan and Mathewson ).
The reports do not say whether they were used.

Hope this helps.

[Muzz62]

thank you a big help

[Muzz62]

Was wondering if anyone can confirm the goalkeeper substitutes for both final games Between Norwich and Ipswich

[Bluebird54]

The only newspaper report I can find is in the Daily Mirror and it does not provide this information. Neither does the Ipswich web site (Pride of Anglia )or my Norwich City history book. One possibility is Rothmans, unfortunately I do not have that season. The keepers were probably Cawston and Sivell but no evidence to confirm this.

[Muzz62]

Thank you that was what i thinking is annoying that no publication gives unused substitutes

[Muzz62]

As Texaco cup evolved into Anglo-Scottish Cup
Wondering if anyone can fill in some blanks from my information regarding Norwich games.

Information looking for
August 2 1975 Norwich v Fulham - Have name of substitutes but don't know if any took field. Norwich Grapes and Steele Fulham Dowie and Porter

August 9 1975 Bristol City v Norwich - Again have Norwich subs Hansbury and Morris but don't know if used

August 14 1976 Fulham v Norwich - Names of Fulham subs and if used.

August 5 1978 Notts County v Norwich Name of Notts county Subs I have Carter but don't know other one

Any help much apperciated

You may already use this method but Ebay can sometimes help.
Often you can find a programme where a scan of the team page is listed, and where team changes / substitutes are noted

Examples:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204287751067
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114208647249

It is also a good source for the referee / linesmen, if you wanted to take your research further.

I hope this helps
