When Howard Wilkinson was manager of Sunderland AFC he instructed the ballboys to return the ball quickly.
Each ballboy appeared to have a spare ball so he could sling that one on if the match ball had gone into the stands.
This led to several incidents of two balls on the pitch at once, and on one occasion, three.
