Roger Palmer (born 30 January 1959) is an English former footballer. He played for Manchester City and Oldham Athletic. He is the all-time leading goal-scorer at Oldham.
In January 2008, the BBC Sport website put out an appeal for information on Palmer's whereabouts, ahead of the Oldham v Everton FA Cup Third Round tie. The teams last played in a cup tie in 1990, with Palmer the only player whose whereabouts were unknown.
