Deal Town chairman Dave Chmura has spoken of his sadness at the news of the death of former Hoops captain Roy Carr.
He said: “I was privileged to play alongside Roy when Deal were in the Greater London League and then in the Kent League. He was a midfield maestro in a Hoops side which also included the likes of Alan Hughes, Tippy Prior, Terry Skelton and John Ludlam, Tony “Trigger” Tregunno and Malcolm Campbell.
“Later Roy played as a sweeper for Betteshanger alongside another top local player, Geoff Almond, and then as a manager he led the talented Walmer FC side to the final of the Kent Sunday Cup. Roy was a great credit to local football who will be sadly missed.”

Whatever the match, Roy always gave 100%
Played with passion, and was a leader; the sort of player you would want in your team.
At times, we would have words on the field, but he was an honest man. Will be sadly missed.
Thankyou ❤️
