I would imagine there are quite a few players that joined later on in their career, made their debut and then retired while at the club.
Richard Gough.

Yeah , I know, I was just taking Bally's question litterally.
You could add first and last proffessional game, but of course he played for Sligo before his Everton debut, possibly Blackpool on loan too, maybe not, memory is sketchy.

Might be someone under Kendall across his spells? Kevin Ratcliffe is pretty close for example.

Is Seamus Coleman going to become the first player to have his debut and final game under the same manager at Everton
Can't think of many that would've done this either way no matter the manager
Suppose Ferguson was it 25 years??? and Wenger 22 years??? Would have a few like
But without injuries and their career coming to a natural end there's not going to be many that have achieved this.
Big dunc made his debut under joe royal I think

Joe Royle signed Dunc on a permanent basis, but he made his debut whilst on loan with Iain Durrant, under Mike Walker

He means Alex Ferguson.
As in players like Giggs and neville would have made their debuts and retired under Alex Ferguson.

Just watched the overlap and he said he signed under walker with Durante but made his debut under Royle as walker got sacked
Unless I mis heard him need a Friggin interpreter sometimes ha ha

Dunc's first Everton goal came in Joe Royle's first game in charge, but he made his Everton playing debut under Mike Walker

I remember Ablett getting a winner and Big Dunc played in that game think it was West Ham , was on Holiday in Tenerife.
But how is Big Dunc comparable to the Coleman factor @4evablu

That West Ham win was our first of the season, Walker got sacked after the next game
