7) Which of the following was introduced into football first: The crossbar, Goal nets or the refs whistle? |
Crossbar - 1870 under Sheffield rules which replaced tape which had been introduced in 1865 to end the dispute about shots going over although 1875 was when a crossbar was demanded.
Goal nets were suggested in 1891 and were first used in a big match in the 1892 FA Cup Final and the whistle was first used in 1878 but (and the question is specific) the ref wasn't introduced until 1880 (umpires were used before then) so the "ref's whistle" was 1880.

Pickles - who later strangled himself on his lead.

False - although that depends on whether you are counting his time as a park player where Crystal Palace got him from.

Billy Wright - England's captain of the 1950s
