Roy Hollis

Roy Hollis (born December 24th, 1925 Great Yarmouth, died November 12th, 1998) is a former footballer and a member of the Norwich City Hall of Fame. [ Hugman , B, J, (Ed)"The PFA Premier& Football League Players' Records (1946-2005)" 2005 p295 ISBN 1852916656]

Hollis made 107 appearances for Norwich as a centre-forward between 1948 and 1952, scoring 59 times.http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/Content/Sport/CanaryCentenary/asp/GreatPlayers4.asp Norwich Evening News accessed 2 November 2007]

Hollis scored a hat-trick in less than 30 minutes on debut for Norwich. Of all Norwich's top-20 scorers, (see List of Norwich City F.C. club records) his rate of a goal every 1.81 games is the best. His best return was five goals versus Walsall F.C. in 1951. After he left Norwich, he played for Tottenham Hotspur F.C. and Southend United F.C.. He scored a hat-trick for the latter at Carrow Road in 1954, the "only player to score three times for and against City on the ground."
