Debuts

[Baldwin]

Following Medleys cracking introduction, anyone recall any other debuts of note?
Seem to remember Phil Babb scoring with his first touch
Sean McCarthy scored, missed a penalty, hit the post and got sent off if I remember.

[Jantje]

Tony Adcock made a scoring debut with a fantastic goal but did knack-all else!!!!

[Blue Monday]

A mighty Jaunjo header after coming on as a sub ( the only time I have backed a player to score last, and it came in 12/1)

Etherington with a header as well after joining on loan from spurs

[Herr Doktor]

Stan Collymores overhead kick against L****.

Indeed my favourite ever City goal!!

[meelin]

Dean Richards scored on his debut against Bournemouth away a few years ago.

I also remember a certain Bobby Campbell scoring on his debut at home to Peterborough.

Neither of the above were as spectacular as Medleys on Saturday though.

Im sure super neil tolson scored on his debut as well...what a bloke notworthy:

don't suppose Luke's would knock Sean McCarthy's off the top according to BfB's reckoning...

I seem to think that Andy Thomas and David Campbell both scored on their debuts at Brighton in a 3-1 win on the first day of the 88/89 season. Can anyone remember?

[wykie]

Collymores for me, bloody soaked I was as the rain blew into the stand but I never felt it until they scored.tup:

lee power scored on his debut i believe, maybe against swansea? he then netted an equaliser away at reading (and i got in free!) on the tues night in the next game and then i went to cambridge utd and he was nowhere to be seen. real shame. that's how i remembered it.

[sweetcakes]

Can't think of anyone to beat super Sean McCarthy a top striker but wank at pens

[Legend_4]

Didn't Andy O'Brien score on his debut?

Last minute winner against Oxford.

Not 100% sure if this was his debut or not?

Yeah i remember the Cambridge game, we lost 2-1 to a really sh*te goal in injury time which was neither a cross nor shot but still went in. The only other time i've been there we lost 4-1 when Lenny Lawrence was manager. Its a bloody miserable place.

is that when most city fans got in late and missed Liburd's screamer ????

one of the best days out ive had is that and partially why i got my name :D

[Macca Ha Ha Ha]

Remember a lot of those - and Bobby Campbell - we never thought he would go on and become the all time leading scorer when he made his debut!

McCarthy's debut was eventful and we lost 2-1 aye.

Medleys is up there with any of them for me.

[Tyneside BCFC]

I am gutted i missed Medleys goal. I was walking on the front in temperatures of about 28C at Ventnor on the Isle of Wight with the wife and kids when my dad text 'Medley 2-1 screamer'. I spoke to him after the game and he was raving about it, still got a suprise at how great it was when i saw it on Sky Sports, superb goal.

yeah, it was crap mate. didn't graeme tomlinson net for us though?? i seem to remeber him scoring and then doing well and leaving us? i never went to the one when liburd scored a belter but i remember seeing the goal on TV still don't know where that came from though :rolleyes:

my most miserable ground has to be the old oxford ground i think 3 games no goals for and 3 defeats!! tdwn:

He'd never missed one in his proffessional career until he joined City.

Took him about an hour to change that in the mighty Claret and Amber stripes though :rolleyes:

[sweetcakes]

I know he was a regular at Plymouth until the City curse hit him :(

Cambridge 4-1, I was there that day, 3 hours drinking in the bar adjoining the ground, spent two hours slating Liburd off to the home fans who for some reason rated him.............The rest is history......and I managed to see the goaltup:
