I don't know.

I think Peter Schmeichel played a big part in popularising the practice, but it'll pre-date him I'd imagine.

I'm just glad Craig Samson decided to give it a go one day.

I remember John Martin going up for a late one back in 1991 at Broomfield in a cup replay, where we were winning 1-0.
Quite sure it had been done long before that.
Mother played by Peter Beardsley, Father by John Cleese.

The first one I ever saw doing it in the flesh was Sieb Dykstra. I can't even remember if it was Dundee Utd or Motherwell we were playing at the time.

I remember being fuming because we cleared the ball and Jerome Vareille was running clear about 70 yards from goal with only one defender to beat when the ref blew the full-time whistle.
