Just seen it. "His" first and third goals were a bit iffy to say the least, but if the Football League's own website sats he got three then I'm not going to argue - John Aldridge would've claimed all four!
He got a touch before the final touch off the defender, so unless someone can prove his touch from that short a range was not goal-bound, that is his goal all day long and a long-awaited treble.
Plus, if they do take it away from him, by that precedent the second on Saturday was also an OG.
Just seen the goals on SSN. Defo think he got the hat trick. First one hadn't crossed the line before he helped it. Second one was a cracker. Third one was not too easy to see but, for me, he guided it into the net. JJ's was definitely his and I loved his love in with the crowd. :-)
I was right behind it, he definately got a touch and in my opinion that touch was after the defenders touch. After watching on SSN my opinion hasn't changed.
I don't think there can be any doubt it was BWP's goal for the hat-trick. I was at the front to the left of the goal and he definately touched the ball to place it in the corner of the net away from the goalie.

But don't believe it even when on the OS if the bookies say different!

Get in BWP! First career hat-trick 0% proof otherwise!
Cafc site report the 3rd as an own goal
''Bradley Wright-Phillips is claiming a first career hat-trick after Tuesday night's 4-0 romp at Chesterfield, according to Chris Powell.''
That should be the end of it. Four goals in four days. Well done, Bradley.
