It's not just long throw-ins and going direct from the goalkeeper that have regained popularity in English football this season.
From an absence of a whopping 23 years to one of just 89 days - and plenty in between - reappointing former managers is in vogue across the top four tiers.
Of the seven clubs to change boss this season, three have brought back someone who had previously been in their dugout.
In total, at time of writing on 15 October, 11 of the 92 Premier League or Football League teams are managed by someone in their second (or more) spell at the helm.
