Was trying to remember the facts of this one too. Mine is the keeper on the day only played that game too. Maybe Billyhibs has the facts. Can't find it via Google.....

Found a bit more now that someone mentioned his name.
It was Iain Hendry broke his leg in the 1st minute of his debut away to Berwick 31/01/81.
Can’t remember if he was a trialist or on a short contract but the club either gave him a contract or extended his contract to cover his recovery.
He came on as a sub on 06/03/82 in cup game against Patrick Thistle and then headed back down south

That one's a beauty - played in a win at Pittodrie IIRC? But we couldn't sign him due to something to do with a dug?! :confused:

Otso Virtanen - only played in the home leg against Brondby I think?

Dermot McCaffrey sent off on his debut versus The Sheep at Pittodrie

Doesn’t make him a bad person :greengrin

I think that was his only start, but he came on for Oxley in the cup replay in Inverness after the contact lens incident. If he's notable then it's for this cameo role in the magnificent Conrad Logan saga.

Not ‘one game’ game players but certainly in recent years, the two most influential ‘short term’ players were The Polar Bear (for obvious reasons) but imho and even more so, the 4 week loan spell of Kris Commons in Dec ‘16/Jan ‘17 was the boost we needed to kick on and get promotion. 5 games but importantly 2 game winning goals. The winner against Falkirk would still be travelling in orbit had the net not got in the way!! LOL

Stuart McCaffrey made his Debut midweek at parkhead left for Aberdeen at end of season

He's gone on to have a good career in Finland.
