Thread: Callum Robinson joins an exclusive Cardiff City club.

  1. #1

    Callum Robinson joins an exclusive Cardiff City club.

    Callum Robinson has an international hat trick to his name and has joined five other former City players who have scored three in a game for Wales - can you name them?

    As for other countries, I've found two (both relatively recent City players) who have done it, but it's a question of thinking of a player and checking on Wikipedia as there doesn't appear to be a list of City hat trick scorers - I'm sure there are a few more, but not too many I'd guess.

    Earnshaw is the obvious one. Did Toshack and John Charles score hat tricks for Wales? Beyond that, I have no idea.

    Yes, you've got three of the five Welsh hat trick scorers there Eric. I'd say the two you haven't got are the toughest ones and you've probably a better chance of getting one or both of the non Welsh hat trick scorers.

    Is Earnie the only one to score an international hattrick whilst they were a Cardiff player?

    I'd forgotten about Jorn Schwinkendorf's hat trick for Germany in Euro 2000.

    I'm sure Toshack scored a hatrick v Scotland, May '79 at Ninian Park in the Home Internationals. Hope my memory isn't playing tricks

    Ross McCormack has scored a hatrick for Scotland I think?

    According to Wikipedia, Len Davies scored seven in a game for and FA of Wales XI on a tour of Canada, but he never got a hat trick in a full international. Dion Burton's a decent shout, but it doesn't look like he scored three in a game for Jamaica.

    That's a good suggestion, but it doesn't seem so.

    Pretty sure he was, although there's a slight chance that one of the two Welshmen Eric didn't get was a City player at the time.

    Hard to imagine him going under the radar, but he must have done because that one happened without me knowing a thing about it.

    Mel Charles got 4 in a game once. Whether he was a Cardiff player at the time I don't know?
    I'd also hazard a guess at Kenwynne Jones or Kenny Miller as others?
