Alan Warboys for me, although it was'nt exactly a hat trick as he went one better. Scored them all in around the first half hour of a game against Carlisle I think. No more after that though, ended up 4-0.

just checked online because I couldn't think of many i'd seen.
Is this true!?

Michael Chopra 29 Sep 2009 v Derby County 4 goals.

did he score 4 or did the team score 4?

I think that the 3 goals Chopra scored at home to Leicester was deemed the "perfect hat trick", left foot, right foot and header.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

John Buchannan v Sheffield Utd, around 1978. Two lobs and a penalty. That's the first hat trick I can remember anyway.

Chopra's hat trick v Leicester was quality. I remember Earnie scoring 3 v rovers in FA cup and 4 v Gillingham in a 5-0 win.
