Superb to all involved... It may take a bit of work, but a bit of collection for something similar may be a good initiative.

UPDATE

Wow, genuinely blown away, my son just got back from school and some kind person on here (no note) had sent this to him. The top has tags on.... That is beyond generous and honestly me and my wife are taken aback, thankyou so much, a gesture like that has absolutely flabbergasted him he can't believe his luck
That is amazing and exactly what this board is all about.
Look how happy he is

Well done to whoever has done this for him

Some people do or at least try to but I find that people are very cautious & to a extent even paranoid that you are up to no good due to the amount of bad people about & their previous bad experiences. Society doesn't seem to be as trusting as it once was.

He had to go in goals on the Turf once, pretty sure it was a midweek game?
It was midweek - Bournemouth I think

Funny the useless things you remember from your childhood! Didn't he keep a clean sheet as well?

Are they the only two examples of it happening, CT ?
The most remarkable one was against Leicester on the Turf in 1982/83. Alan Stevenson was sent off and Paul McGee went in goal for the resulting penalty. They scored the pen and McGee came straight back out with Brian Laws going in goal having missed a penalty himself. We won another penalty which McGee missed.

So we had three goalkeepers, one sent off and two who missed penalties. We lost the game 4-2.

I’ve also seen Andy Farrell go in goal and Les Latham as well as the others mentioned on this thread.

Sorry to bump this again but parker literally just received another package from James mcdonoue. An order straight from classic football shirts. Genuinely can't believe this we are taken aback, these will be passed on when he grows out of them but so so kind. Even included a football! Burnley fans literally are the best. UTC and a massive thankyou from Parker
