Boro strikers scoring on debut

On the flip side, remember Tino Asprilla’s debut at the Riverside 🙄 We were battering them 1-0 and he came on and changed the game for them, 1-2 in the end.
 
Wasn't that his first home match, and he made his full debut the week before away against someone (Fulham?).

Still one of my favourite ever players is French Frank, a real 110%-er every week.
Not too sure now, I thought it was his full debut you could be right
 
1899 Robert Eglington became the 1st Boro player to score on his home debut, away debut & FAC debut
 
Big John Hickton scored his 1st ever Boro penalty v Workington at home, on the 22nd September 1966, with us been 2-0 down, we went on to win 3-2

It was big John's 22nd birthday & only signed the day before from Sheff Weds
 
I was gonna shout out for Andy Payton. I was in the Holgate that night watching him race clear and calmly slot home.

Then 15-20 mins later carried off and out for months. So don't want a debut like that😕

Yanic Wildschut. He had some debut at Rotherham. He looked like an absolute 'weapon' quick / tall and powerful. So a great debut don't make a great signing😂

Andy Paytons debut v Bristol City was a saturday afternoon kickoff
