Debut Goals

In honour of our new Antipodean striker, I've been thinking about our club's debut goalscorers. There have actually been quite a lot this season alone, which is where I'll start.

Chris Wood
Matty James
Jamie Vardy
Marko Futács
(Antony Knockaert also scored on his first start, but can't remember if he'd had a few substitute appearances before that).

 

Jeff Schlupp scored a hat trick on debut
Waggy scored on his debut

 

Yep, and Dany N'Guessan scored in that same game.

 

Off last season's player Sol Bamba and Lee Peltier scored on debut

 

Darren Kenton got Nigel Worthingtons first goal as manager!

Apart from that, Id say Barry Hayles. Always good for a goal was our Barry.

 

Harry Panayiotou as well

 

What 2

 

Les Ferdinand vs saints in the prem. Didnt Stearman score on his debut too?

 

Mark Yeates scored with his first ever touch

 

Steve corica

 

Crikey - I am of the age where I remember Mark Bright scoring a brace on his debut

 

Alan Young (brace).

 

Iwan Roberts scored 2 on his debut V Wolves in the early 90's

 

Joe Waters in a 2-0 away win at QPR in the FA cup .... watch the highlights on Youtube and the surge from the massed ranks of City fans behind the goal ...

 

Didn't Stan Collymore score a hat-trick on his debut or was it just his home debut???

Cheers

 

I'm fairly sure it was just his home debut.

 

Yakubu

 

Can't be arsed to look but seem to recall his debut might have been at Watford (a drab draw?) at the weekend before playing Sunderland in mid-week where Stan and Bruno were on fire and tore them to shreds in a 5-2 win.. the TV pundits had come to talk about Quinn and Phillips but went away speculating whether the Leicester pair might not be a possible option for England on that display ... brilliant night.

 

Sol Bamba scoring just 30 seconds into his club debut during the 2-2 FA Cup Third Round tie against Manchester City on Sunday 9th of January 2011.

 

Didn't Lee Peltier score on his debut and then never again?
