I think I read somewhere that a yellow ball was substituted for the white ball at some time in the game, but this didn't make the ball any more visible to me. Surely an orange ball would have been better, because I remember one being used in a game in about 1970 (possibly against West Ham) when snow covered the whole ground, and was cleared away from the touchline so that the extent of the pitch could be made out.
