    Mate literally just texted me. Huge loss to the world of football. Marvelous player for club and country and a real gentleman. RIP Sir Roger.

    Gosh... Terrible news, but you scared me for a moment there. With HIAG dying recently I thought @RogerisontheHunt had passed away for a second when I saw this article.


    Sad to hear about Roger Hunt, glad to hear @RogerisontheHunt is still OK.

    Well he was 83, so it could be anything.

    One of the all-time greats of English football.

    Great player who set the gold standard. Many call Gerrard - Mr Liverpool - but Roger got there a long time before him The epitome of a great footballer and person. Thoughts are with his family and friends.

    <rose>RIP Roger Hunt, Liverpool Legend <rose>

    Not yet. Still got a number of years left

    My namesake, chosen originally as he was my Dads favourite player and to honour one of our greatest ever players.

    Roger Hunt scored the first ever goal that was broadcast on Match of the Day in 1964, against Arsenal. Watch from 13.45 to see it
