Tell us what you think of this episode
Roger has been the dressing room attendant at Sophia Gardens, or the SWALEC as it was previously known, for over 20 years.
He shares with us the story of his encounters with sport as a player, coach, scout and players assistant. From his early love for Newport County and Glamorgan CCC he tells us about his involvement with the National Welsh Footballing set up, his time as a scout with both Chelsea and Fulham and the work of a dressing room attendant.
He reflects on a life spent in sport that, according to a medical opinion of him at the age of six, should never have happened.
