mikejh45 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Definitely Charlton, Burnley was the next home game we won 3-0 with Ritchie and McCarthy (2) scoring. Can't argue with you. If my memory serves me right, I had a belly full of Front House Boddingtons. But I do remember both Richardson & Kenny coming in as an emergency midfield partnership and performing brilliantly. Shame Kenny couldn't repeat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wozzer Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Simon Stainrod away at Blackburn in 1979, scored from a seemingly impossible angle in a 2-0 win Correct - he was sensational that night - the goal you refer to followed a run that began on the halfway line too - down the touchline, cut in and hammered past the keeper from about a foot shy of the goal line.

oafcprozac Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 adrian littlejhon at home to plymouth stands out great turn and hit in front off chaddy end.top goal His debut and the goal (turn and shot into the top corner at the Chaddy) you refer to was against Watford, cracking goal to level it at 1-1, they scored again and a certain Mark Allott scored a scrambled late equaliser - his first at BP. The Plymourth game two weeks later, saw the return of 'cough' Starbuck, Littlejohn grabbed a brace in a 2-0 win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 David Reeves v Vale. A proper centre crash... E4e STRKR Superb in his second game at Bloomfield Road too, what a shot for his second. Pretty pants from then on though, once he had that contract in his pocket. Cheeky get held on for his pay-off too despite agreeing to return to Saltergate, !

thetramfixer Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 (edited) Didnt Fitz Hall have a great debut vs stoke? keeping Burton quiet and scoring a goal could be wrong though yep that's correct! mind you he had played his first game the week before at huddersfield, but this was his HOME debut! header too! we won 2-1 .... with dean holden potting for the potters!!! what was even more amusing was my then general manager was a stoke fan and never missed a game. he and a couple of his mates picked me up at the airport on their way to the game... on the way back to the airport, the atmosphere could be cut with a knife.... great day!!!!!

Tommy_Fent Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Aaron Wilbraham? Remember him? 2 goals against Stockport. I also recall Clyde Wijnhards debut at that point I was very impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Not sure it was the best ever, but in recent times Kevin Betsy's debut was awsome, but it turned out to be virtually his only good game for us Was thinking that myself; scored a good goal against Hartlepool.

outoftheblue Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Paul Bernard against 'boro in the penultimate game of 90/91 was pretty stand out. That was my first thought on reading the thread. I also thought Gunnar had a good debut, and thought "This guy's gonna be a real star" when I first saw Tore Pedersen. Mike Fillery stands out for some reason, but I can't remember why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardy Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 John Keeley, mainly for the fact that Rick Holden came out wearing the keepers shirt and everyone in the ground was shouting "Keeley, Keeley!" Then Rick took the keepers shirt off, as he had, had his hair cut nobody realised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanakapan Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Iv'e seen some good Latics debuts in my time, Bobby Johnstone being the highlight. but the one I remember the most was in the 1960s when young Irishman called Tony Foster made a magnificent league debut, unfortunately he never repeated that performance and I believe returned home after a few matches. Who made the best Latics debut in your opinion ? Tony Fosters was in a 4-0 win if I remember right. Cannot remember who against. I think Ian Towers scored 2 or 3 that day. You surely must remember Alan Mcneills against Aldershot ?????? David Shaws on his return from WBA was something too...Hat trick in first 15 minutes against Southampton.
