Roy Hartle (4 October 1931 – 5 November 2014) was an English professional footballer, mainly playing at right-back.
Hartle signed for these clubs during his career: Bolton Wanderers as a sixteen-year-old from non-league Bromsgrove Rovers and went on to become a stalwart, representing the club in 499 games in all competitions. His achievements include a 1958 FA Cup Final winner's medal, playing in the side that beat Manchester United 2–0.
After a spell in the USA with the New York Generals as a player/coach,[1][2] he called time on his playing career and was appointed as Chief Scout at Bury after turning down other job offers with the likes of Stoke City and Grimsby Town.[3]
Appearing in Bolton's Hall of Fame and having a club suite at the Macron Stadium named in his honour, he died on 5 November 2014 at the age of 83, after spending time at a local nursing home following a long illness.[4]
