The appearance of Rob Lainton for Port Vale on Saturday got me thinking of other players that made just one appearance for Cheltenham.
Off the top of my head :-
Miguel de Souza V Birmingham in FA Cup 1990 (and he went on to play for Rushden in that never to be forgotten game !)
Ian Stevens v Northampton 2000 ? (Too far to travel apparently !)
I think Stewart Phillips ex-Hereford & WBA played one game the first match of 91/92 season ?
So who were others for a bit of fun ?
One match wonders

Kevin Bartley, one game, one goal in 1993/94 v Sittingbourne!
Will Puddy and Connor Roberts started one game each in goal.
Marlon Jackson made one brief sub appearance in 2011/12.
Josh Emery too at Southend in 2009.
Plenty more, but there is a selection!

Paul Bastock
Jon Skeen
Chris Taylor - one game in county cup in 1997/98
Derek Bragg - in doing so must have become the oldest player for us ever
Jon Coates - brother of early 90s striker Marc played against Colchester Utd in an LDV game 2002/03
David Wells - think he was a teenage keeper on loan from Bournemouth 1994/95
Lathaniel Rowe-Turner - one of the many Martin Allen loanees to play once
Sam Cox - another MA loanee
Ashley Hemmings - MA loanee
Romone Rose - MA loanee
Luke McCullough - direct from Man Utd used just once 2012/13
Jamal Lawrence
Alex Cooper - last season
Joe Hance - youth player who turned out against Oxford City in our efforts to get out of the FA Trophy as quickly as possible
Luke Thomas - FA Trophy appearance before being snapped up by Derby
Going further back I’m sure I vaguely remember Mark Lockwood and Gary Leeds back in the 1980s but 2 that stick out came from Southampton one called Paul Masters later manager of Winchester and brother in law of Alan Shearer the other I think his surame was Owen
County cup saw Jason Rees also play once while on trail in 2000 I think it was a first team game then but was soon relegated to a reserve fixture in 1999 when it was still on the first team fixture list I remember seeing Lee Burby, Stuart Mitchinson and Lloyd Vanson against Cirencester

Richard Dunwell played quite a few games, on loan from Barnet.
The Australian keeper was Scott Starr, but he didn't appear in a competitive game.

Cian Harries. Young lad on loan from Swansea.
Didn’t we sign Toby Ajala on loan but he played zero games?
