Alun Evans in late sixties we bought him from Wolves,Liverpool where 4-0 up inthe first fourteen minutes against Leicester city alun evans scored a hatrick!!!

I know he didnt score on his debut but does anyone remember the impact Ronny Rosenthal had when he signed in the closing stages of the 89-90 season?? I think he got a hat-trick on his third game at Charlton and went on a bit of a scoring spree! The kop had a new hero but sadly i think he will be remembered for the greatest miss that we ever witnessed against Villa!
Some great debuts mentioned! Especially Barnes and Beardsley at Highbury, i remember that game well. What a team we had that season!. . .but Aldridge's debut came in Feb 87 when he scored the winner against Southampton at the anfield road end.
Clough, Collymore, Berger also had great debuts. Titi Camara aswell at sheff wed in 99.
The best of all must be Abel Xavier scoring on his debut with a blistering shot against Ipswich! (i'm joking! ! ! !
)
