The origin of football substitutes goes back to at least the early 1860s as part of English public school football games. The original use of the term "substitute" in football was to describe the replacement of players who failed to turn up for matches. For example, in 1863, a match reports states: "The Charterhouse eleven played a match in cloisters against some old Carthusians but in consequence of the non-appearance of some of those who were expected it was necessary to provide three substitutes.Bell's Life in London and Sporting Chronicle (London, England), Sunday, February 22, 1863; pg. 7.New Readerships" The substitution of absent players happened as early as the 1850s, for example from Eton College where the term "emergencies" is used.Bell's Life in London and Sporting Chronicle (London, England), Sunday, November 11, 1855; p. 7. Numerous references to players acting as a "substitute" occur in matches in the mid-1860sBell's Life in London and Sporting Chronicle (London, England), Saturday, December 17, 1864; Issue 2,226. where it is not indicated whether these were replacements of absent players or of players injured during the match.
