Worst ever debut?
Forgetting (if you can) Hemming, what was the worst ever debut you've seen by a Leyton Orient player? And please don't say Sam Howes!!

Re: Worst ever debut?
Have a really vague recollection of someone being sent off about 15 mins into their debut but can’t place it

Jack Jeffrey (West Ham loanee) hooked after 45 mins or something along those lines
Joe Dolan, was it his debut he got turned inside out by the opposing striker and never recovered
Shwan Jalal, the other goalkeeping disaster

Wasn't that in fact our very own Alan McCormack?Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Sun Aug 11, 2024 5:27 pm Have a really vague recollection of someone being sent off about 15 mins into their debut but can’t place it

It will never be beaten. The worst debut of all time. Was absolutely torn to shreds for start to finish. An absolute embarrassment to professional football.

David Corner
We paid a lot of money for him and he was awful - think he might have only played once

Re: Worst ever debut?
Has to be Shwan Jalal. Was a Tuesday night and I think he was our 4/5th loan keeper that year.
I thought someone from the crowd who had never played the game before had managed to blag their way into our dressing room.

Re: Worst ever debut?
There was another keeper around that time that was equally poor (was he an Ex Man U reserve)?

Think that it was after we had Ben Alnwick who joined for a bit but then left rather suddenly. Is that who you are thinking of?LittleMate wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2024 1:30 pmThere was another keeper around that time that was equally poor (was he an Ex Man U reserve)?
Edit, I was wrong. It was Rachubka! See below,
