Blue Thunder Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Steven Naismiths recent hat trick v Chelsea had me wondering who was the last Scot to score a hat trick against the reigning English Champions? Would be a great pub quiz question. Anybody know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 No one. It's unprecedented. Naisy is a history maker. The boy from Stewarton has made history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Thunder Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 No one. It's unprecedented. Naisy is a history maker. The boy from Stewarton has made history. I actually thought there was a possibility that he was the first and only Scot to hit a hat trick v reigning English Champions. Thanks for your answer mate.

RandomGuy. Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 James Morrison done it against Man City in 2012. West Brom lost or drew every game against Man City in 2011/12 and 2012/13, and only scored one goal over the four games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 who was the last Scot to score a hat trick against the reigning English Champions? Nobody called Scot has ever scored a Premier League Hat-trick let alone score one against the Champions. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueDiamond Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's never happened previously in the history of the Premiership. Only Scots to score hattricks in premiership are John Hendrie Gordon Strachan Gary McAllister Kevin Gallagher Duncan Ferguson Steven Naismith.

Blue Thunder Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's never happened previously in the history of the Premiership. Thanks for the response. I know this is one for the oldies on here - but has it ever happened pre the Premiership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueDiamond Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Thanks for the response. I know this is one for the oldies on here - but has it ever happened pre the Premiership? I'd be astonished if it hasn't. When you think of the Scots that have scored goals for fun in England, from Hughie Gallagher through to Ian Ure, Charlie Cook, Peter Lorimor, Dennis Law to Joe Jordan et al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Id be astounded if Gallagher hadnt managed it, he's likely managed everything you could ever think to ask about a Scottish forward tbh. Always surprises me a little that so few folk seem to know about him, hes arguably the greatest Scottish striker of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Thunder Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Kenny Dalglish anyone? Yes, I'm sure there's been at least a couple of Scottish strikers who have scored hat tricks against the reigning Champions. Thanks to all for the input/information.

He scored 5 hattricks in the season Newcastle won the league. The odds have to favour one against the current champions (Huddersfield) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
