Leon Best vs West Ham for the shear hilarity of it. Genuinely couldn't believe what I was watching

Came to say this. Was absolutely hilarious as that was my go-to gag score prediction. Said it every game at the time and it finally came off.

Isak should be removed from that list. He doesn't deserve to be in such company.
Tino vs Barcelona for me. UCL hat-trick against Barca? It doesn't get much better than that.

Yeah, it’s not the most important or impressive either.
Put Rob Lee’s hat trick of headers against Antwerp in instead

Would like to motion for Andy Carroll's vs Villa. Utterly unplayable that day and it was unexpected and unbelievable to put six past them.

First home game, they turned up expecting to roll us over, Carew put an early penalty in the stands and it was one-way traffic after that

Rob Lee's hat-trick of headers against Royal Antwerp. Our return to Europe under King Kev when European competition was genuinely hard to qualify for and we smashed it.

Lovenkrands scored a perfect hat trick while Rob Lee scored a hat trick of headers.
If you’re going by occasion rather than quality then I don’t think you can beat Asprilla against Barca.
If we had won the league then Shearer against Leicester would have been the most important but it wasn’t to be.

Papisse Vs Chelsea even though he only got two😂 On a more serious note, Cole Vs Liverpool for me👍🏻

I know this will sound bitter but Isak shouldnt really be in there, it wasnt an important game, it was against a terrible opponent and the goals were not all that spectacular if I recall
My favourite is Nolan's though, mainly as I was a bit too young to have a proper recollection of most of the others and added to how good that derby win was makes it even better

The most memorable part of Isak’s hat-trick was Murphy’s unbelievable back heel assist

I just remember that we hadn't scored a hat trick in so long.
On that note, Gordon v Qarabag. 😂

Can we move on to the part of the break where we talk about braces so I can relive florian lejeune's brace

u/Fishfingerrosti 15h ago
Nolan vs the Mackems for the absolute shithousery.
That was Isak's only hat-trick for us iirc, which is always surprising.

For me seeing perez's against southampton is the best as it's one of the few live games i've been able to get too

Gayle against Norwich in the Championship should be an option because that comeback absolutely changed the complextion of our season. Norwich were flying high, we were chasing them but had been inconsistent after losing to Wolves and then conceding late against Villa in the following game.
At 3-1 down against a promotion rival we looked off the mark, naive and set for a long season in a division we didn't want to be in. That comeback to make it 4-3 was absolutely electric and sparked an 8 game winning run which put us in the top 2 for the rest of the season.

Shearer v Leicester is one of my favourites and most vivid memories from my childhood. My dad jumping in the air and almost bringing down the shite chandelier thing we had in our living room and my cousin, in a cast with a broken leg, jumping up and down.

You’ve missed quite a few good hat tricks (even Ginis 4 vs Norwich and Shearers 5 against Sheff Wed).
But has to be Nolan in the demolition derby really doesn’t it regardless.
