Roger Patrick "Ernie" Hunt was an English footballer who played in the Football League for Swindon Town, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Everton, Coventry City, Doncaster Rovers and Bristol City, and for the Los Angeles Wolves in the United Soccer Association. At international level, he was capped three times for the England under-23 team.

In 1971 he was the winner of the inaugural BBC Goal of the Season award.
