Was it two goals on his debut?

Owen Garvan - produced some really good displays but then got sent off against Leicester (I think it was them) and then lost a lot of his aggressive. Was never the same player after that.

Also thought that Teddy Bishop would go on to have a great career.

In terms of non youth team players - Gary Roberts looked great but his lack of pace was a real issue as was the case with Darren Currie.

We’ve had a few technically brilliant but very slow wingers 😄

Always found it staggering how slow Stuart Slater was

Two for me.

A Dozzell, who I thought would be a better player than his dad and Bowditch.

Darren would have been superb in walking football.

A Dozzell was frustrating simply because you can see he’s technically really gifted and an athlete, but always played within himself. If only he could take the handbrake off, and got braver and more ambitious with the ball at his feet. Definitely has got more in his locker than he’s ever shown. Not necessarily just his own doing though I suppose.

Perhaps not first viewing, but I can remember seeing Lankester in a few games where we were awful but he looked so much better than the rest considering he was just a young lad, Stoke away being one such case. Was convinced he was going to have a top half champ career at worst.

Bishop was another, a real beacon of hope when he first came in, seemed to have it all going for him.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

Not be a superstar but I remember thinking Shane O Connor looked a cracking little left back on the couple of occasions I saw him before he vanished into obscurity

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

I remember Everton at home and Nabil Abidallah coming off the bench. He looked really exciting. Like we'd found another Bobby Petta

On his debut, Gwion Edwards did s fantastic little trick where he flicked the ball over both his and the defender's head and he left them for dead. I remember thinking "if every new player is as good as that then playoffs it is!"

Ahem

Perhaps one before I even saw him play, Jamie Peters, what a coup at the time!
