I remember when he had that fight. He was following in the footsteps of others who gave it a crack like Leon McKenzie and Curtis Woodhouse. The latter were far more successful than Roget though.

I remember Freddie Flintoff on radio talking about his one fight (which he won). He got knocked down but got up. The referee asked him "What's your name?" (In case you don't know, a ref' will always ask a simple question as a check for concussion). Freddy tells the story - "I had my gumshield in, all I could say was "Fuggu Fugfug". The referee said "That'll do!"

He’s a PT and has been for years now. Was playing non league but he made enough money at Stockport to be comfortable back then.

NOT only did Leo Roget play for both Southend United and Stockport County during his career but he also lined up alongside the current managers of both clubs too.

Cult hero for me, not the best player but gave his all
Not the best player but still one of the better ones. Played and indeed starred for us in the Championship. Then went to Stockport in the Championship and had a good run there.

LEO Roget remains in awe of the job his former Southend United team-mate Kevin Maher is doing in charge of the Shrimpers.
