Got the feeling it is one of that Ajax side.... I'll throw in Edwin VDS and Edgar Davids

[RickG16]

It must be VDS?.. Ajax, Juve, United

cirrect

[RickG16]

I guess Angelo Peruzzi must have been in net for Juve's win in the late 90s

Who holds the record for the shortest debut in Premier League history ?

 

 I haven't posted in this forum topic for years and I may be jumping my turn (Please excuse as I am an old fella) but having recently watched a video I thought it might be of interest.

More likely will be someone who came on at the end of a match but can;t think of anyone at the moment.

Maybe we'll find out by the end of lockdown. 

[champers]

Could be someone who got injured shortly after coming on. Shortest debut doesn't mean they never played again, possibly played hundreds of times.

I am fishing for a clue.

I heard this one myself on the radio a few weeks ago, so won't join in

 

But in the absence of Ken (and if it's the same one I'm thinking of)

 

Clue:- it was a Goalie

More clues?....

[LeungKen]

Thanks BJ. ( You are right on the money I suspect )

 

OK here is a clue, his only appearance was against Arsenal in the 1990s.

 

Clue number 2, he also received two Charity Shield runners-up medals.

 

Clue number 3, he was born in York.

[LeungKen]

A couple more clues.

 

Not only was it his debut, it was his only appearance in the Premier League.

 

It happened in 1999.

[LeungKen]

I think you had better tell them mrbojangles

 

Cheers & Good Health.

[champers]

Kevin Hitchcock? Chelsea goalie coach.

[wilai]

Had to look this one up. couldn't even guess it!.....Thought Rick G might have.......now there's a clue????

[Bredbury Blue]

Googled it and never heard of him. Famous in...York.
