The Ricky Van Wolfswinkle Effect

[ijjysmith]

Following on from the successful Bogey Teams (http://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/bogey-teams.70070/) thread, why does it seem that new players always score their first goal against us?

RVW
Ulloa
Falcao

Any others stick out?

Matic scored his first Chelsea goal against us this season.

 

[Pat's Van]

it's because our goalie is sh!t

 

[BlueLlama]

I think Jon Stead scored his only goal against us.

 

[Neiler]

Scarhnar
Lampard
Trevor Sinclair

Always scored against us!

 

[adi dassler]

Going back a few years, corrado grabi for Blackburn. Think it was the only goal he scored aswell

 

[Ring master]

I think Jon Stead scored his only goal against us.

Soon to be renamed 'Romalu Lukaku effect'.

 

[Durham Toffee]

I really hope Rom starts producing soon...I really want him to. He could be a powerhouse.

 

[toffeejack]

was gerrard's free kick in the derby his first goal against us as well?

don't remember him scoring against us before

 

[toffeejack]

remember when we lost 4-1 to arsenal's youth team in the league cup.

was it quincy ousu-obeye (sp?) who got a brace - doubt he scored many for them. think a few young arsenal players have grabbed their first vs us tbh

 

[toffeejack]

agbonlahor obviously

 

[toffee matt]

Dean Marney

 

[EFCPaul]

Cannot believe Balotelli didn't score against us. Shows how crap he is.

I must say, I'm disappointed this thread isn't about members who went to sleep at night and woke the next morning to find 20 years had passed.
