Shearergol Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Supermac’s debut wasn’t against Liverpool. Quinn scoring 4 goals against Leeds takes some beating however, KK’s debut was on a different level, the whole build up and game itself was the stuff of dreams and it was a watershed game for NUFC. His home debut was though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His home debut was though. Yeah, that wasn’t the question though. My dad remembered Len Shackleton scoring 6 on his debut in the 13-0 victory against Newport - not too shabby.

Mr Logic Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Best debut of all time? Easy! SuperMac against Liverpool. The best ever, by a country mile. As I said earlier Supermac or Mickey Quinn nothing compares The best bit about SuperMacs debut was him coming off after scoring the first two to have two front teeth out, then coming back on to get his hat trick. Instant hero. Forever. I'd forgotten all about that, the teeth. The photographs of him grinning in the weeks that followed. ---------------------------------- As we're we back in time there, and as this is the Ben Arfa thread I was watching the other day and saw shades of Ben Arfa in some of those runs, the balance and keeping his feet when knocked, the swerves and turns..

geordie john Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I was fortunate to see this man (god?) play a few times. Understand that this was in the age when footballs were heavy leather, boots were real boots not the slippers of today and centre halves kicked shit out of forwards for fun. He was, without any doubt in my mind, the most extraordinarily gifted footballer I have ever seen. to this day. He never got injured, never fell over, never got 'taken out' and always looked like the ball was glued to his laces. Amazing turn of speed, ability to run with the ball, turn on a sixpence, see a pass ans score some utterly divine goals. And fucking good looking too! What happened towards the end of his career was a travesty, but man, he left some great reminders of his ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 First time I ever saw the Toon was 1968, at Old Trafford. Man U beat us 6-0, with Best getting a hat trick. He absolutely tore us apart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
