beatlesaint Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Nobody in my 35 year of watching them. The great Phil Boyer scored three in one season back in 1979 but they were all at home.
david in sweden Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 with help of the trusty Saints record books, I think we can safely say that Ricky Lambert has indeed set a new club record at least in League games . there is an illustious list of players who have completed at least 3 hat-tricks in one season dating back to the legendary Bill Rawlings who did it in 3 seasons in the 1920's. Derek Reeves did it twice in the 1950's, as did George O'Brien in 1964/65 Ron Davies scored 2 hat-tricks (and a 4)in 1966/67 and (as mentioned above)... Phil Boyer scored 3 hat-tricks in season 1979/80. It is indeed a remarkable thing when you realise there are still 9 league games left.
John Boy Saint Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Nobody in my 35 year of watching them. The great Phil Boyer scored three in one season back in 1979 but they were all at home. Blimey I thought my hero of the day Phil Boyer had nailed 4. Isn't the record still held by Jimmy Greaves with 5?
beatlesaint Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Blimey I thought my hero of the day Phil Boyer had nailed 4. Isn't the record still held by Jimmy Greaves with 5? My hero too ! Scored virtually all his goals that season at home.....probably something to do with us being generally crap away from home ;-)
david in sweden Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Blimey I thought my hero of the day Phil Boyer had nailed 4. Isn't the record still held by Jimmy Greaves with 5? yes that's an " almost " question, because Phil also scored 2 on two other occasions in that same season.
Lighthouse Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Is there anyone who was there when he scored all 5 of his Saints hat tricks? I was there today, Brighton, Forest and MK Dons but I missed Watford a few weeks ago. Can anyone beat that?
saintoaks Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 It's not St Patricks day it's St Lamberts day ...sha la la

Crazy Diamond Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 Blimey I thought my hero of the day Phil Boyer had nailed 4. Isn't the record still held by Jimmy Greaves with 5? Kenny Deuchar is the holder I think with six.
mcjwills Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 The record is 9 hatricks by George Camsell of Midlesborough in the 1926/27 season
mynameisthehulk Posted 17 March, 2012 Posted 17 March, 2012 The record is 9 hatricks by George Camsell of Midlesborough in the 1926/27 season Hcdajfu?
Lighthouse Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Hcdajfu? Died in 1966, so probably a bit quicker than Hammond.
Jack Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Just wait for the Pompey game. 4 hat-tricks in one match Rickie?? This. IMO FFS.
Appy Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Is there anyone who was there when he scored all 5 of his Saints hat tricks? I was there today, Brighton, Forest and MK Dons but I missed Watford a few weeks ago. Can anyone beat that? All but Brighton for me.
paulwantsapint Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Who has the most saints hatricks ever? I would guess mick the windmill channon

Leicestersaint Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 I don't think anyone has ever scored 4 hattricks in a season for saints - and there is still time for a few more!

david in sweden Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 (edited) the final figures must surely be those Saints players who scored most career hat-tricks, and here they are; top man was 1920's goal legend Bill Rawlings scored 11 career hat-tricks (3 of those were 4 goal hauls ) next comes George O'Brien who scored 9 hattricks ( 4 of those were 4 goal games ) plus 2 more in various cup games. he is also the only player top score a hattrick in each of 6 consecutive seasons he was with SFC. (1960-66) Derek Reeves 1950's record holder scored 7 hat-tricks (2 of those were 4 goals ) but he also scored two 4's and once 5 in Cup games. Matt le Tissier scored 7 career hat-tricks, Ron Davies 5 (which included 3 four goal games ) Mick Channon and Steve Moran both scored 4 career hat-tricks, and Terry Paine and Martin Chivers scored 3 each,and also Phil Boyer (mentioned earlier). around 36 other players have scored 3 in a game (since 1920) the prolific Charlie Wayman scored bags of goals but never a hat-trick - but is the only Saints player to score 5 goals in a League game. (1948/49) For younger fans - you really missed a lot in those early days - thank goodness we have Ricky to cheer. Edited 18 March, 2012 by david in sweden
Badger Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Who has the most saints hatricks ever? I would guess mick the windmill channon That was my guess as well, surprised by the post above that he only scored four hatricks.
david in sweden Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 (edited) Who has the most saints hatricks ever? I would guess mick the windmill channon to be honest.... I thought the same at first. Maybe because we are used to seeing our goal aces scoring all the time - it just seems like more. and Mick is still club record goal scorer. In fact Mick also scored 2 goals in a league game a whopping 23 times (not counting cups). Ron Davies showed his qualities in that he was with Saints only 7 seasons (half that of Mick) but managed to score 2 goals in a game 20 times ! in addition to the above. Martin Chivers' career being much shorter - only 5 complete seasons but he scored 2 goals in a game no less than 17 times, including 7 times in 1965/66 the "first " promotion season (in addition to those figs. above.) A special mention also for Norman Dean (reserve centre forward 1965/66) and the only Saints player ever to have scored a hat-trick ..at Fratton Park! Edited 18 March, 2012 by david in sweden

A special mention also for Norman Dean (reserve centre forward 1965/66) and the only Saints player ever to have scored a hat-trick ..at Fratton Park! As mentioned on a different thread, I saw Chivers & O'Brien get hat-tricks in a 6-1 win over Rotherham in my first game. I then saw Dean's trio at Farton Park in my first away game. I have also seen all 5 SRL's.
Badger Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 The only double hatrick I've witnessed was Steve Moran & Danny Wallace in an 8-2 thrashing of Coventry in 1984.
Badger Posted 18 March, 2012 Posted 18 March, 2012 Just a thought, how many did Colin Clarke score ? I remember two, on his debut v QPR, and a second (Villa or Newcastle). Thought there was another,but not sure, or against who.
Chris Larkin Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 How many have even scored hattricks in recent history? MLT, Beattie, Surman, Saganowski, Lambert. I'm probably missing some. Did John or Rasiak ever get one? John got one when we beat Hull City 4-0 at home in December 2007. A quick search on Google seems to think that Rasiak never had one for us. Kenwyne Jones never got one competitively, although he scored three in a preseason game against Anderlecht before 06/07. This is two years before I followed the club properly, but Dexter Blackstock got a Carling Cup hat trick against Colchester in October 2004 as well. Brett Ormerod apparently also got one in the (then) Worthington Cup in October 2002 against Tranmere. Those are the only hat tricks not yet mentioned I've been able to dig up from the last ten years from players we've owned in the post-Prem era.

I know the fa & prem have discounted this but it was a proper hatrick Egil Ostenstad in the 6-3 man utd win
Golden Balls Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 I know the fa & prem have discounted this but it was a proper hatrick Egil Ostenstad in the 6-3 man utd win Ah yes, "how dare someone score a hat-trick against Man Utd!?! The cheek! So no Egil, you cannot have the 3rd goal which was clearly going in"
MbaleSaint Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 Wouldn't know about that, think you may have to look further back to O'Brien or Reeves. Shearer maybe. I think Shearer's only hatrick was on his debut v Arsenal. Many younger supporters may be surprised to hear that his goals per game ratio was very average for Saints (and he was awful on one on ones) and many supporters thought we had got a very good deal when we sold him for a record price. Of course, subsequently this proved not to be the case!
