One of a raft of innovations for the 1994 World Cup in the United States was that, rather than being treated on the pitch or carried off on a stretcher, players would be driven off by an electric cart to receive medical treatment.

The vehicles used - compared to golf buggies or milk floats - added a slightly comedic air to a colourful World Cup.

What happened next? Golf carts have not reappeared at any subsequent World Cups, although some occasional examples remain, such as at English club side Reading


We are the only club with a buggy in England? Lol

I used to work with the bloke who drove the Madejski golf cart.

I used to play cricket with one of the buggy operators. Whether he does the stretchering or actual driving I'm not 100%

Just remembered I drove one of the buggies around the Olympic park when I was working as a games maker during the Olympics.

Was alright.

I bet you still wear the purple shirt and smug expression.

No, purple shirt is packed away in a box.

I do still wear the trainers and the smug face when I tell people I did it.
