Did anything ever come of having the V numbers printed/sewn onto player shirts?
I was reading back through the thread here to catch the debuts of some of the players and noticed it was a popular idea 2-3 years ago but doesn't seem as if it ever got anyway.
Lyle Taylor the 81st Charlton player to score on his debut
Is there a list of players who've scored on their home debut and their away debut. I'd guess that the total number must be significantly less than 81. Well done Lyle.
Yes, I think so. Trevor Edmonds (1931), Alexander McCrae (1947) and Darren Bent (2005) all scored twice on their debuts. I can't see any triple scorers though.

Morgan V858), Lapsie (V846), Maloney (847), Cummings(850) and Mascoll (V851) have already been capped.
But that leaves potential debuts for
Steer
Maynard-Brewer
Blumberg
Stevenson
Doughty
Since 1921 they have used 948 players compared to our 858
All five subs have also yet to play a first team game.
Using the team sheet is the best way to go to ensure consistency with V-numbers for historical appearances where a team listing is all we have.
Will admin ever update the thread title?
