Sam Weller Widdowson invented shin guards to protect the wearer from injury. The idea was the wearer would have more confidence playing football knowing they wouldn’t be sent to the ground in a heap after being kicked in the lower leg. He made the first football shin guards by cutting down a pair of cricket leg pads. He then strapped the pads to the outside of his socks with leather straps. Although other players criticised Widdowson for using them, some players began to don the protective devices. Churches, schools and workplaces created their own football clubs.

But, while the Premier League proved to be a multi-million-pound distraction, football was being thoroughly reinvented. Things clearly had to get a little worse before they got better for the long term but that left a huge opportunity for sheer footballing slapstick in those innocent, wide-eyed months of late 1992. In September, Sheffield United travelled to White Hart Lane to face Tottenham and their poor goalkeeper Simon Tracey would manage to sum up the mild chaos of the immediate post-backpass chaos in the space of 15 utterly brilliant seconds. In retrospect, this is actually quite impressive in its almost total lack of shame. In the final seconds, German defender Stefan Reuter slid the ball back to Bodo Illgner, and earned the dubious consolation honour of performing the last legally handled backpass in a major tournament. “The goalkeeper has a rare privilege in football,” wrote FIFA in an unusually opinionated press release.

The knowledge andunderstanding of a game with rules, played with a ball and against opposingsides was present as soon as Europeans were.

The AFL broke open the parochialism of the old game and in so doing saved the game from bankruptcy, but at the expense of some traditions.
