Philip Michael Roe (born 7 October 1991) is an English footballer who plays as a defender. Born in Chelmsford, Essex, he was a Sheffield United youth team player, having two spells on loan at Retford United while with the Blades, but failed to progress to the first team and moved to Port Vale in summer 2011. He then joined Matlock Town in July 2012 before moving to Worksop Town in February 2013. He returned to Matlock Town in July 2014.
Roe graduated from the Sheffield United youth system to win two loan spells at Northern Premier League Premier Division club Retford United in 2009 and October 2010. However United's manager Micky Adams did not offer him a contract in summer 2011, leaving Roe without a club. Ironically, Adams was then sacked, only to sign Roe and his former youth team captain Kingsley James, after he was appointed manager at League Two side Port Vale in July 2011. Adams handed Roe his senior début on 22 November 2011, in an FA Cup First Round 1–0 defeat to non-league Grimsby Town at Blundell Park; Roe was an 87th-minute substitute, replacing Adam Yates. Roe signed a new contract with the club the following month, designed to keep him at Vale Park until the end of the 2011–12 season – meanwhile fellow left-back Robert Kozluk was released, leaving Yates and Roe as the only full-back specialists at the club. Roe made his league début on 14 January, replacing Anthony Griffith 80 minutes into a 2–1 home defeat to AFC Wimbledon, and was then given his first start against Shrewsbury Town at the New Meadow on 27 March, but the match was abandoned after 64 minutes due to a fire caused by the failure of the floodlights; he nevertheless gave "an encouraging performance". Though his appearance did not count in official statistics, the yellow card he received for a lunge on Jermaine Grandison remained. With just three appearances all season, Roe was not offered a new contract.
