So how do we determine who's the first when there's multiple debutants? Number order, alphabetical order, order in which they step onto the turf when coming out of the tunnel, or order in which they touch the ball in the game?

Position on team sheet
If position on team sheet is the way to go, then I then I would suggest having a look through the list as there would be an issue with the numbers allocated for the Bristol Rovers back in August 2017.
Amos, Fosu and Clarke would need amending
There possibly could be more hence why best to take a look
Absolutely mental that Keith Peacock first played for the Addicks 3 months after I was born! I first saw him play on the ‘69-‘70 and he’s still atnthe club today!
Have we confirmed which order we're using yet? If we're going team sheet order it's:
V0989

Nathan Jones

Aren't numerical order and team sheet order one and the same? On official team sheets players are listed by squad number and not position are they not?
I can't speak for previous seasons, but this season it's been positional, which is why Ahadme is lower down the list on the first one than the second one.
I assume it’s done by teamsheet order for consistency’s sake.
You can’t always find a teamsheet, especially from back in the day, where the players are given positions or even shirt numbers.
So by moving forward with assigning V-numbers in team sheet order, it means the process of numbering stays consistent across the ~120 year history of the football club.
I am not 100% certain about any of the above so some confirmation from the people that know what they’re doing would be helpful. :-)
Whoever is granted position number 1,000 on the V-list should be presented (perhaps by @LoOkOuT?) with the Saxman Trophy. Especially if they disappear without trace soon after taking their place on the list.
I know next to nothing about the V numbers but given that Ian Wallis has completed two volumes up to and including the 2023/2024 season of the Valley 1000 surely those numbers are set in stone?
I'd expect 1000 to be an academy player off the bench in a BSM Trophy game. Can't see it being a first team signing unless we get an unexpected amount of signings

We should hold back on giving debuts in the BSM once we reach 999, so that 1000 can be our star January signing. Mbappe, Messi or Darren Purse.

Which is in numerical order, whereas the one posted on social media was this:
Which is positional order. So which one is correct? And does it actually matter?

Never had this problem back in 1990 when the 500 came into being.

Got to pull up a list of youth players who are yet to make their bow. Maybe if Dixon plays in the U21s comp he’ll be 1000…
