Have we ever had a player score back to back hatricks? Has it ever been done away from home?

It's difficult enough to name players that have scored 2 hat tricks for us, Never mind back to back ones.
I think Dublin got 2 as did Huckerby and McNulty.
Any others since Micky Quinns against Arsenal have only got the 1.
Anything before then is before my time.

David Cross scored a hat trick at Everton on the first day of the season in a 4-1 win and another on the last day of the season at Burnley in a 3-1win I think.

...and I was there at Burnley. One of the maddest away games I've ever attended - mainly for the after match visit to Blackpool. Mayhem barely describes it!

(Including a Burnley fan firing god knows what at us out of a water pistol, between the railings separating the supporters!)

I was at the Everton game. It was a lot calmer there I think than your experience at Burnley.

Last visiting player to score 3 (or more in this case) was Andrey Arshavin in the Premier League in 2009 - he scored 4 for Arsenal.
I think only 2 visiting players have scored hat tricks against Liverpool at Anfield ever - the other one is our own Peter Ndlovu.
Also remember Gary Gillespie scoring 3 at Anfield after we sold him to Liverpool against Brum.

Gary Gillespie scored a hat trick for Liverpool? Some feat that is for a centre half.

Some Liverpool team! Although Kevin Macdonald was playing, mind...I remember it well. At the time, couldn't believe that a defender had scored a hatrick, but my dad told me he was a quality player for us so I thought it just proved he was that good!



It's actually the perfect hatrick: header, left foot, right foot.

1st Gillespie goal is a thumping header from a corner, just before the 5 mins mark of the clip. 2nd is at the end of a fantastic 1-2 filled run from Gillespie from the back, move starts at around 8 min 40 secs. 3rd is a penalty just after 11 mins. According to one Youtube poster, "Rush and Molby argued over who was taking that penalty at the end and we all started singing "Gary Gillespie Gary Gillespie" and he got given it in the end"-or as Brian Moore puts it, "they're sending Gary Gillespie forward!"

Some hapless defending for Brum from ex-City Harry Roberts and Jim Hagan! Not surprising they went down, even with a young pudding-bowl haircut David Seaman behind them. Nicky Platnauer also featuring, along with Ray Ranson and Hinckley Athletic legend and current Bedworth manager Stuart Storer.

I miss the heavier balls. Football was hard and looked like art then when done well, now it looks like someone playing FIFA. Gotta blame the sports science a bit, too: it was more fun when it was more human.
