'''Roger Hunt''' {{post-nominals|country=GBR|size=100%|MBE}} (20 July 1938 – 27 September 2021) was an English professional [[Association football|footballer]] who played as a [[forward (association football)|forward]].

Eleven years with [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]], he was the [[List of Liverpool F.C. records and statistics#Top goalscorers|club's record goalscorer]] with 285 goals until being overtaken by [[Ian Rush]]. Nonetheless, Hunt remains Liverpool's record league goalscorer with 244 goals. Under [[Bill Shankly]], Hunt won two [[List of English football champions|league title]]s and an [[FA Cup]]. In August 1964 he also scored the first ever goal seen on the [[BBC]]'s ''[[Match of the Day]]''. Regarded as one of Liverpool's greatest ever players, Hunt is referred to as ''Sir Roger'' by the club's fans, ranking 13th on the [[100 Players Who Shook the Kop]], an official fan poll.

Hunt was a member of the [[England national football team|England national team]] which won the [[1966 FIFA World Cup]], playing in all England's six games, [[Scoring in association football|scoring]] three times. Hunt was inducted into the [[English Football Hall of Fame]] in 2006.

==Club career==
===Early career===
Born in [[Culcheth and Glazebury|Glazebury]], [[Lancashire]], Hunt played for Croft Youth Club, [[Warrington Town F.C.|Stockton Heath]] and [[Devizes Town F.C.|Devizes Town]] during his formative years.<ref>{{ENFA}}</ref>

===Liverpool===
He was signed for [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]] by manager [[Phil Taylor (footballer, born 1917)|Phil Taylor]] in July 1958, joining from Stockton Heath.<ref name="auto">{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58721150|title='Gentleman, modest and one of Liverpool's greatest'|work=BBC Sport}}</ref> Hunt made his debut and scored his first goal for the club on 9 September 1959 in a [[Football League Division Two|Second Division]] fixture at [[Anfield]] against [[Scunthorpe United F.C.|Scunthorpe United]]; Hunt scored in the 64th minute to give the Reds a 2–0 victory. This goal was the first of many – he went on to score 286 goals for the club, 244 of them in the league, which remains a club record.<ref>{{cite news |title=Liverpool FC mourns passing of Roger Hunt |url=https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/announcements/445003-liverpool-fc-mourns-passing-of-roger-hunt |access-date=28 September 2021 |agency=LiverpoolFC}}</ref>[[File:Liverpool-spelers in Hilton, St. John (links) en Roger Hunt kopen kaarten voor t, Bestanddeelnr 919-8539.jpg|left|thumb|Hunt (right) and Liverpool strike partner [[Ian St John]] in 1966]]

After [[Bill Shankly]] replaced Taylor, Shankly and his fellow '[[Boot Room]]' coaching staff embarked upon a clear out of 24 players. Hunt however was retained and was a major factor in the Reds' success in the 1960s.<ref name="bennett">{{Cite web|url=http://qosfc.com/HeadlineNews/ViewFullStory/tabid/151/selectmoduleid/498/ArticleID/1228/reftab/36/Default.aspx|title=Reuben Bennett career profile on www.qosfc.com|access-date=24 May 2010|archive-date=10 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200410192131/http://qosfc.com/HeadlineNews/ViewFullStory/tabid/151/selectmoduleid/498/ArticleID/1228/reftab/36/Default.aspx|url-status=dead}}</ref> Liverpool gained promotion to the [[Football League Division One|First Division]] in 1962,<ref name = "bennett"/> after the club had finished 3rd or 4th, and thus just outside the promotion spots for five consecutive years from 1956 to 1961. Hunt appeared in 41 of the 42 league games and scored 41 goals in season 1961–1962. His goals helped propel Liverpool to a comfortable eight point title win over runners-up [[Leyton Orient F.C.|Leyton Orient]] and included five [[hat-tricks]], coming against [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]], [[Walsall F.C.|Walsall]], [[Swansea City A.F.C.|Swansea Town]], former club Bury and [[Middlesbrough F.C.|Middlesbrough]]. It was a similar story in [[1963-64 in English football|1963–64]] and [[1965-66 in English football|1965–66]] as Liverpool were English League champions.<ref name = "bennett"/> Hunt again the top scorer (as he was for eight straight seasons) scoring 31 goals from 41 games and 29 goals from 37 appearances respectively. On 22 August 1964, Hunt scored against [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] after 11 minutes in a 3–2 home win, the first ever goal seen on the [[BBC]]'s flagship football highlights programme ''[[Match of the Day]]''.<ref>{{cite web |title=History of Match of the Day |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tv_and_radio/match_of_the_day/879960.stm |work=[[BBC Sport]] |date=14 February 2003 |access-date=26 July 2013}}</ref>

In between the two titles, in 1965 he was instrumental in the side winning the [[FA Cup]] for the first time. Hunt scored four times in a cup run that saw [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]], [[Stockport County F.C.|Stockport County]], [[Bolton Wanderers F.C.|Bolton Wanderers]], [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester City]] and [[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]] all defeated as Liverpool reached the final for the first time since 1950. In the [[1965 FA Cup Final|final]], after a goal-less 90 minutes, Hunt scored the opening goal in the 93rd minute and strike partner [[Ian St. John]] scored the second as the Reds recorded a 2–1 victory over Leeds United at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley]].<ref name = "bennett" /> He scored Liverpool's only goal in the final of the Cup Winners Cup the following year, as they lost 2–1 after extra time to [[Borussia Dortmund]].<ref name="bennett" />

He became Liverpool's record goalscorer on 7 November 1967 in an [[Inter-Cities Fairs Cup]] tie against [[TSV 1860 Munich]] of [[West Germany]], in which he scored his 242nd goal for the club. His final tally for the club was 286 goals by the time he left the club in 1969 to join Bolton Wanderers, a record that was not broken until [[Ian Rush]] 23 years later.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lfchistory.net/Stats/Article/2561 |title=A timeline for Liverpool Football Club - LFChistory - Stats galore for Liverpool FC! |last=LFChistory.net |website=www.lfchistory.net}}</ref> He also held the record of scoring 100 top-flight goals in fewer games (152) than any player in Liverpool history, until [[Mohamed Salah]] reached the milestone in one game less in September 2021.<ref>{{cite news |title=Is Mohamed Salah Ready To Take Lionel Messi's Mantle As The World's Best? |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesnalton/2021/09/27/is-mohamed-salah-ready-to-take-lionel-messi-mantle-as-the-worlds-best/ |access-date=28 September 2021 |work=Forbes}}</ref>

===Later career===
He signed for [[Bolton Wanderers F.C.|Bolton Wanderers]] in December 1969.<ref name="auto"/> In 1971, he moved on loan to [[Hellenic F.C.]] in South Africa's [[National Football League (South Africa)|National Football League]].<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Bolsmann |first1=Chris |title=Professional Football in Apartheid South Africa: Leisure, Consumption and Identity in the National Football League, 1959–1977 |journal=The International Journal of the History of Sport |date=2013 |volume=30 |issue=16 |pages=1947–1961 |doi=10.1080/09523367.2013.861128 |s2cid=143966092 |url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09523367.2013.861128?needAccess=true&journalCode=fhsp20 |access-date=3 October 2021|url-access=subscription }}</ref> He retired in 1972, and had a testimonial with Liverpool in April 1972, attended by 56,000 people.<ref name="auto"/>

==International career==
Hunt was capped 34 times for his country, with his debut given to him by [[Walter Winterbottom]] whilst he was still a Second Division player on 4 April 1962, in a friendly against [[Austria national football team|Austria]] at Wembley. He scored on his international debut as [[England national football team|England]] won 3–1.<ref name=efo>{{cite web |title=Roger Hunt |url=http://www.englandfootballonline.com/TeamPlyrsBios/PlayersH/BioHuntR.html |website=England Football Online |access-date=28 September 2021}}</ref> He was part of the England squad at the [[1962 FIFA World Cup]] in Chile, but was not selected to play.<ref>{{cite web |title=England in Chile 1962 |url=http://www.englandfootballonline.com/cmpwc/CmpWC1962Squad.html |website=England Football Online |access-date=28 September 2021}}</ref>

England had been chosen to host the [[1966 FIFA World Cup]], and Hunt, along with Liverpool club mates [[Ian Callaghan]] and [[Gerry Byrne (footballer, born 1938)|Gerry Byrne]], were selected by manager [[Alf Ramsey]] for the 22-man squad.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/nov/29/gerry-byrne|title=Gerry Byrne obituary|date=29 November 2015|website=The Guardian}}</ref>
Hunt was one of three forwards selected for the tournament. He initially partnered [[Tottenham Hotspur]] striker [[Jimmy Greaves]] up front, but following a leg injury to Greaves he played alongside [[Geoff Hurst]] of [[West Ham United]].<ref>{{cite web |title=England 1966 |url=http://www.englandfootballonline.com/cmpwc/CmpWC1966Squad.html |website=England Football Online |access-date=28 September 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=White |first1=Jim |title=Jimmy Greaves was supposed to be England's 1966 hero but injury meant 'the big one' eluded him - and it hurt |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/09/19/jimmy-greaves-supposed-englands-1966-hero-injury-meant-big-one/ |access-date=28 September 2021 |work=The Daily Telegraph |date=19 September 2021}}</ref>
He played in all six games, scoring three times, twice against [[France national football team|France]] and once against [[Mexico national football team|Mexico]], as England went on to win the [[Jules Rimet]] trophy after a 4–2 extra time win over [[Germany national football team|West Germany]] in the [[1966 World Cup Final|World Cup Final]] at Wembley.<ref name=Guardianobit>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/sep/28/roger-hunt-obituary|title=Roger Hunt obituary|date=28 September 2021|website=The Guardian}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/sep/28/roger-hunt-england-world-cup-winner-and-liverpool-striker-dies|title=Roger Hunt, England World Cup winner and former Liverpool striker, dies aged 83|date=28 September 2021|website=The Guardian}}</ref>

A section of the England fans (from the south of England) blamed Hunt (a northerner who played for a northern team) for replacing Greaves in the [[1966 World Cup Final|World Cup Final]], and would boo him on his subsequent appearances for England (even though it was actually the Londoner Geoff Hurst who replaced Greaves). Following this, Hunt eventually told [[Alf Ramsey]] in 1969, following a game against Romania, that he no longer wished to play for England, and retired from international football.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Hattenstone |first=Simon |date=2006-04-07 |title=The best of times |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2006/apr/08/newsstory.sport |access-date=2025-01-24 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2021-09-28 |title=Roger Hunt obituary |url=https://www.thetimes.com/uk/article/liverpool-and-england-legend-roger-hunt-dies-aged-83-lww0lb6dg |access-date=2025-01-24 |website=www.thetimes.com |language=en}}</ref>
