Players who've scored on their Burnley debut

Post by tiger76 » Sun Jul 31, 2022 4:10 pm

So after Maatsen notched the winner at Hudds to open his Clarets account, who else has had the honour of bagging on their Burnley debut.

Steve Jones springs to mind with his brace against Crewe.
Chris Wood against Palace.

There must be others surely, but none that come immediately to my mind anyway.

Wood debuted against Blackburn in league cup.

Vydra scored against Olympiakos.

Mike Conroy at Rotherham in 1991.
Derrick Parker v Coventry( or had he started before that?)
Warren Joyce v Port Vale 1993
Steve Kindon v West Ham in 1968? think that might not be correct.

Not forgetting the greatest centre forward I've seen for us. Willie Irvine scored on his debut at Arsenal in a 2-3 win and followed it up a few days later with a hat trick v Birmingham in a 3-1 win.

Think the West Ham game referred to was Kindon’s second game.
John? Murray also scored in that game but probably not quite his debut.
