John Aston played in the game but didn't score, and his other appearance against Leicester was a 4-0 loss.

With one more new face this campaign, a new record will be set for most players used in a league season.

The current record is 35, set in 2008/2009 and 2011/2012, and equalled on Saturday at Hillsborough with the appearances of Alli, Aasgaard, Bowler and Naismith.

You're right. June 1976.
