Leonard Geard (born 12 February 1934) is an English retired professional footballer who played in the Football League for Brentford as a wing half.
A wing half, Geard began his career in the youth system at Fulham, but departed in March 1953, without making a first team appearance.[1] Geard transferred to Fulham's West London rivals Brentford, but due to having to undertake his National Service, he was unable to make his professional debut until 27 April 1955, in a 1–1 Third Division South draw with Crystal Palace.[2] He made a further three appearances during the 1955–56 season, before being released at the end of the campaign. Geard dropped into non-League football and signed for Southern League club Kettering Town, with whom he won the 1956–57 division title.[3]
