However, it was not former Everton manager Sam Allardyce who came on for Bury, but his grandson, who has the same name.
17-year-old Sam Allardyce Junior, a center-half, came on for League Two club Bury with nine minutes left to play.

Bury manager Ryan Lowe told the 'Daily Mail: "He is a no-nonsense central defender, as you would expect."
"He takes no messing and we think the world of him. He warranted his place. He's worked hard to get his chance and he'll be the next in."
Allardyce Junior joined Manchester United's academy when he was eight-years-old, but signed a two-year scholarship with League Two side Bury last year.
His grandad, at the time of the move, told the 'Sun': "My grandson just got released from Manchester United, which is disappointing for him but great for his career because he has just signed for Bury."
"If he is good enough, he will be in Bury's first team long before he would have been in United's.
"There has to be a change of direction that doesn't allow any club to nick our best 14-year-old when they feel like it.
"That's the rule and we've got to get rid of that because a 14-year-old shouldn't be bought from Crystal Palace by Manchester City or Chelsea because they're just overloading, right?
"And we know they're overloading as Chelsea have 30-odd players out on loan and Man City have about 24.
"So leave the young players where they are that their local clubs, where they can develop and play.
"Then if the time comes when the big club comes and takes him, at least we'll know he is ready.
"But the way it is now, the limelight drags them away from here to City or United. If they stay, they will get in the first team quicker and get to the top of they are good enough - and it's a much better way."
