On 25 March 1970, Sir Alf Ramsey announced a 28-man provisional squad
to take to Mexico. Sir Alf named a
further twelve reserves, who were inoculated
and received medical certificates for one simple reason; any one of them
could be called in an emergency.
Those given 'reserve' status included Mick Jones.
