SUBBED SUB
Since the introduction of two substitutes it has happened on a number of occasions where one substitute has replaced another. The first came in December 1989 when the Boro played Leicester at home and ran out 4-1 winners. During the course of the game Stuart Ripley substituted Alan Kernaghan only to go off injured himself and be replaced by Mark Burke. Ripley's 21 minutes on the pitch were not unproductive in that he managed to score Boro's 3rd. goal. At the end of the season this turned out to be his one and only goal of the entire 1989/90 campaign.
In December 1994 Jaime Moreno became the second sub to be replaced. He came on for Andy Todd and was later substituted by Clayton Blackmore. And so it goes on at frequent intervals but to date a triple sequential substitution has not occurred. This would involve starting player X subbed by A who is subbed by B
