| Has a keeper played as an outfield player? 09:25 - Sep 20 with 5689 views | NthQldITFC |
Obviously outfield players have played in goal, particularly in the good old days of one sub (or no subs), or if all subs have been used and a keeper sent off, but can anyone remember a sub keeper coming on for an outfield player, or even a keeper swapping with an outfield player? Is this even allowed?
Not a pi55 take, just a question engendered by a comment on another thread, and I'm talking about pro football, not non-league or parks football - we've all been there! |  |

I often wonder whether Spence is a keeper... he's certainly not a RB |
hes not a keeper, he'd be released on a free transfer if I was the manager. |  |

Spence, Tom Adewotsit & Sears should be with Hyam at Southend. |  | | |

Maintaining the Luton link, towards the end of his career, I remember Les Sealey having to come on as sub for West Ham and play as an outfield player in a game against Arsenal. I suppose that, while it may be a rare eventuality, it’s one of the reasons why goalkeepers are expected to be as fit as any other member of a squad. |
In the days before subs, it was not unusual for a keeper to be injured, an outfield player would go in goal & the keeper would lope around, usually on the wing.
Happened in the 1957 FA Cup Final, probably denying the "Busby Babes" the double. [Post edited 21 Sep 2018 13:12]

Les Sealey debut was up front for West Ham in the premier league against Arsenal in 1995. |  |
