Extra substitutes return for Football League clubs

The Football League have confirmed that they will bring back seven substitutes from next season. The League are currently holding their summer conference where a number of issues are being discussed. Last year the 72 clubs voted to reduce the number of players in match-day squads in the Football League, but many managers were unhappy at the change. Now, following proposals from Birmingham City and Derby County, a vote has been taken which was in favour of bringing the ruling back.
