Fulham-born keeper who started his career as a junior at Brighton and signed professional forms in June 1950 but never made the first team there.
In August 1957 Roy moved to Aldershot and went on to make 35 senior appearances for them spanning the 1957/58-1960/61 seasons before dropping into non-league football in the summer of 1961.
After a month's trial with Hastings he linked up with Dover and spent a year or so there.
Roy joined Margate from Dover as Brian Hughes' understudy in the summer of 1963 and he became the club's regular reserve team keeper for most of the 1963/64 season. He also played twice for the first team, making his debut on 11.11.63 in a Kent Senior Shield game at Dartford that Margate lost 2-0. Roy performed well and pulled off several good saves. However by February 1964 he was struggling to even get a regular game for the reserves due to the emergence of Phil Brooman and he put in a transfer request. At the end of the season he was released by the club and he joined Tunbridge Wells for the 1964/65 campaign.
Roy later moved to Sussex but sadly died from a very rare neurological illness on 25.11.02.
