You beat me to it Bert......Ray Wilson clinches the hat trick.

A quick treble:

Mary Wilson
Peter Stringfellow
Glynn Edwards

Forgot Teddy Johnson
Same birthday as me 4th September.
Except he was 1920.
I was 1949.

Anthony Bourdain

Who's next?

I was only away a day...

Oh no, one of my all time heroes Danny Kirwan brings home the latest treble.
Him and Peter Green were the absolute guitar gods of the late 60s/early 70s.
Same age as me.

Paddy Ashdown and June Whitfield.......who's number three?

Pancho, another of the '65 immortals who brought the FA cup to Anfield after 73 years

Albert Finney and Gordon Banks.....who's next?
(Two people I have actually spoken to in real life believe it or not).

Not me. Had a busy couple of weeks but still kicking

Hatful this week, Tone - Keith Flint, Luke Perry, Magenta Devine, someone had a full on kick at the end of the last century

A one day hat trick.

Jonathan Miller
Clive James
Garry Rhodes

Two of the three could have had the nickname 'Dusty'. The surviving members of Buffalo Springfield have been ringing each other all day on the off chance that Fate doesn't know Her musical history

Bob Willis went for 70.

Two short of his career best IIRC.

3 months older than me.

Yes, Tone, but he'd been ill for a long time. After the '84 Benson and Hedges final, for example, you could see he was well on the way to advanced cunthood and I think he'd been symptomatic for some time.

I was not a fan, I found him a mean-spirited prick, tbh.

Stone-faced contractual disputer who effectively gave Tony Barton a European Cup win, former prolific striker and bloke who liked the League Cup a lot Ron Saunders

Rachel's dad in Friends, bloke who appeared in some subpar films, some tidy telly and some excellent stagework Ron Leibman

Ron Flowers and Ron Atkinson are staying on the phone to each other all night, just in case.  Ron Jeremy and Ron Howard are sat in a room together asking each other if they're OK while kicking about a Da Vinci Code porn followup script where he plays Profucker Robert Longdong.

There's the three.

Willis
Saunders
and now the bald eagle Jim Smith.

David Bellamy for the yankee.

Interestingly, we had two Rons and two managers who were at Birmingham clubs in 1981 (Saunders ended up going from Villa to City, replacing Smith)

1981. Birmingham club. Ron. Fat Atko is shitting himself

Annie Sugden raised her bat for a century and then nicked one into the slips.

Sheila Mercier, sister of Brian Rix, 100

These old fuckers must have spent their lives drinking adrenochrome.

Marie Fredriksson would have to disagree, Tone. 61, had cancer for 17 years
