Fogg's name was the cause of an incident when he was refereeing a game involving
Hughie Gallacher one day. Gallacher, the Scottish centre-forward, had committed a foul and Fogg booked him and before doing so asked him what his name was. 'What is yours?' asked Gallacher, 'Fogg' replied the referee. 'Aye, and you've been in one all afternoon'. (Tony Mason: The Goalscorers, 1976, p. 48).Fogg ran into Gallacher early in his
Football League career. There was one infamous incident in theNewcastle United vHuddersfield Town game onNew Year’s Eve 1927 , which ended with Gallacher pushing Fogg into the team bath.Fact|date=June 2007Internationals
