Brilliant for Jordan Hugill to score so early on his debut, got me wondering about who else scored so early into a debut for us. This must be the quickest goal on a debut since the great Brian Clarke at the Baseball ground back in the day. I was their when Clarkey scored after 2 mins of his first game for us. He got another and we won 4-3 which was sweet as Derby had come down here earlier in the season and smashed us 5-1. I knew Clarkey in later years and he told me that he caught the train to Derby at Gloucester and it was the first time he met the other players who were already on the train. I can't think of many quicker goals by a debutant though I do remember a player called Thompson (I think) who got a couple on his debut, but don't remember any other instant impacts. Anyone?

I might be wrong but I seem to remember Alan Warboys had a really good debut for us.

Think Steve Thompson scored fairly early in his first game

Steve Thompson scored 2 on his debut and then went on and said "don't expect that every week" or something like that

Jason Koumas 4 minutes after coming on as a sub I believe.

Yeah, he scored 4 goals in the first half against Carlisle, I'm pretty sure he got his hat trick inside 10 minutes. If that was his debut, then what a start.

I think his debut was against Sheff Wed the club he had been playing for the week before. He scored a couple i think.

Didn't Jon Parkin score a blinder away at Norwich on his debut ?

Often think back to the goal he nearly scored after 3 seconds against Brighton.
