My wee boy said to me yesterday "Hibs players always seem to score in their first game for Hibs". This is a reference to David Stephens scoring yesterday. He backed this up by mentioning Alan Gow scoring in the cup game against Montrose.

In the past, I can remember lots of Hibs players scoring on their debut, like Houchen against Rangers and Killen against Rangers. But now I am struggling to remember others.

So which others Hibs players scored on their debuts for Hibs?

Fairly sure Gareth Evans did (woops a bit late there), also think Andy Dow scored at the PBS on his debut.
Also Gerry O'Brien on his debut against the yams at ER in an East Of Scotland Cup game played pre season many moons ago. Also lots of bother up town that day IIRC

Didier Agathe got two goals against Dundee in a 5-2 at Easter Road, infact wait, this was his second game wasnt it? First was away to the Hearts and he missed a SITTER after rounding the keeper. Still, what a player, gutted we didnt have him tied down on a longer deal :boo hoo:

Was Lee Power's goal against Celtic at the start of the relegation not on his debut?? Courtesy of some magical wing play by another debutant, Tony 'The Tiger' Rougier??? Will always remember that game, Chico scored an absolute stormer to win it thanks to an assist from ANOTHER debutant, a Mr H. Larsson of Glasgow Celtic.

Lee Power and Paul Tosh signed towards the end of the previous season where Hibs escaped relegation via the play-offs.

My Dad won a competition in the EEN and was in corporate for that game. He and the other winners hit penalties into Jason Gardner at the Famous Five end at half-time.


Peter Gucci also scored on his debut IIRC. I though he was gonna be awesome when I was a lad. How wrong I was!

I take it you meant "don't think that was his debut though"?

If so, you would be correct. He scored in his first league appearance for Hibs but his debut was the week before in a Scottish Cup match against Dunfermline.

True


Did Chris Killen not scored at castle grey skulls after coming off bench on debut?

False, he made his debut the week before in a 4-1 defeat at Tynecastle


Andy Walker & Paul Tosh both scored against Aberdeen in their Hibs debuts i think :dunno:

True, and true


Tommy McIntyre scored on his debut, not done research but I seem to recall it may have been away to Hamilton or St Mirren.

False, but Dougie Bell did score on his debut that day away to Falkirk

i'm sure graham harvey scored on his debut in 1982

True, v Morton in 1982 he didn't score in the next ten games though.


I remember a young Pat Stanton scoring at Motherwell in a 4-3 defeat, Not sure if it was his first game or no.

True, on the 5th October 1963.


Thomas showeumni in the scottish quarter final against qos at Palmerston

False, he made his debut the week before v Dundee United.

David Wotherspoon scored on his debut in a 2-1 win against St Mirren in the opening game of last season!

Also IIRC David Zitelli scored in his 1st game for the Hibees in a 3-0 win away at St Johnstone :greengrin

And I'm pretty sure Keith "Houch the Slouch" Houchen scored on his debut away to the Yams in a 1-1 draw.

Correct. I was at that game, to this day the only time I've seen us taking a point from Parkhead!

Andy Walker scored 2 v Aberdeen on his debut, 2-2 draw.

Dow vs Hertz, remember this too. Wasn't even clear he'd signed until we got to the game and realised he was playing.

Houchen v Hertz - first derby I can really recall going to, put us 1-0 up, beat 2-1.

Paul Tosh scored v Aberdeen, I think we won 3-1 and thought Duffy was going to be amazing, along with Tosh and Power.

Paul Wright v Aberdeen, 90th minute winner, 3-2.

Killen vs Huns. 3-0.

Kevin Harper? I thought that 5-0 game v Dundee Utd was his debut, but not sure.

Wotherspoon did, Zitellie didn't he made his debut v Aberdeen at Pittodrie and Houchen did.

Libbra made his debut the week before against Stirling Albion in the cup.

Zitelli waited quite a while for his first goal, certainly wasn't his debut at St. Johnstone. I assume the lines between friendlies and competitive games are deliberately being blurred for the purposes of a bigger list?? :greengrin

Byline: MICHAEL BAILLIE
ALEX McLeish last night virtually wrote off Hibs' Champions League hopes despite his side snatching a late draw at Parkhead.
On-loan Toulouse striker Marc Libbra grabbed a valuable point on his debut when he equalised with five minutes to go.
The Frenchman cancelled out Johan Mjallby's 23rd-minute opener - ending Celtic's 100 per cent home record.
But despite his side being the first team to take any points away from Parkhead this season, McLeish insisted Rangers are favourites in the race for a spot in Europe's premier competition -
