Follyfoot Posted January 12, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 12, 2023 Was discussing this last night, Didier Six comes to mind, was incredible against Manchester United Another that springs to mind was Simon Stainrods 4 goals at St James Park And who can forget Nil Lamptey's (the new Pele as he was billed) stunning hat trick against Wigan All of which went on to achieve diddly squat in the future 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Carlton Cole actually had a good debut, I knew it was a one-off as I'd seen loads of him before he joined us. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukes Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Simon Stainrod scored 4 on his debut against Exeter City, but did very little after that first season. Edited January 12, 2023 by dukes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was gonna say dublin. He was absolutely sensational on his first few games. I remember one of the best modfield debuts id seen was stan petrov vs west ham he looked unbelievable in that game (i think that was the game they were debuting tevez and mashereno) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Happier times for him but Leon Bailey's cameo against Everton was one of the most rock n roll 20 minutes I can remember. Petrov also had an outstanding debut in a draw against West Ham. Had one cleared off the line too. EDIT: Leon's wasn't a debut was it. Second appearance possibly.

I mean it might not have been the all time best, but I could not believe how good he looked in that game. Absolutely bossed it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
