Bill was one of the Southend United players whom I got to know from times at the Elms pub Leigh-on-sea on Friday nights out. He later had a trophy shop in Rochford, Essex. Bill got me a ticket for Man U v Chelsea where he scored the winning goal.

We lived next door to you in Fenham in Newcastle when you played for United. You were great guy, smashing neighbours and a lovely family. I remember you coming to our New Year parties and I think it was my Dad who introduced you to flat green bowling at the Summerhill Bowling Club. But I understand that subsequently your wife became the real star of the bowling greens. All the best Dave. Take care, Bill

Bobby married June Wright, the daughter of Doris and Ray, friends of my parents. I used to walk June back to Tansleys hairdressers at lunchtime, along Kirby Road where Bobby was lodging. The rest is history. I also did off jobs for them when they lived on the Stadium Estate on Lemsip Avenue.

I will never forget seeing PK playing at white hart lane. He disputed a throw in that the linesman gave by shouting ‘open your bleeding’ eyes’. I was in the front row and as a very young lad it quite surprised me.
