James William "Jimmy" Scarth (26 August 1926 – 12 December 2000) was an English association football player who for more than fifty years held the record for the fastest hat-trick scored in the history of the Football League. ==Biography== Born in North Shields in 1926, he first made his name with local amateur sides, and as a result was invited to Tottenham Hotspur for trials. Although he impressed the London club and was signed as a professional, he found first team opportunities limited at White Hart Lane. He was one of 19 players used in the club's Championship winning side of 1950–51 when he featured in one match.〔(1950-51 Champions )〕 He moved to Gillingham in 1952 for £3,500. It was during his time at Priestfield Stadium that he wrote his name into the record books with a lightning-fast hat-trick against Leyton Orient on 1 November 1952. This was officially recognised as the fastest hat-trick in the history of the Football League until February 2004 when James Hayter notched three goals in 2 minutes 20 seconds for AFC Bournemouth against Wrexham, with contemporary reports stating that the previous record had been 2 minutes 30 seconds.〔(BBC Sport news story )〕 Sources published in the intervening years, however, give the total time of Scarth's goals as exactly 2 minutes or even as little as 110 seconds, which is quicker than the time claimed by Irish player Jimmy O'Connor for the "world's fastest hat-trick". Scarth left Gillingham in 1955 after scoring 24 goals in 138 League matches, and joined non-league Kent team Gravesend & Northfleet, where he was to remain until he retired from football in 1960. During his time there he scored 64 goals in 189 games and helped the club win the Southern League title in 1958. He died at Welwyn Garden City in 2000. His son Bobby Scarth joined Tottenham as an apprentice but failed to make the breakthrough to the professional game.
