Whenever I mentioned a case of somebody who needed a bit of help to him, whether it was former players or members of the public, he never failed to respond in a positive way.”
“We all know that Dave Hickson was his hero, he idolised him but Dave idolised Bill as well! Bill’s knowledge of Everton was incredible and he’d had the experiences that we’d all had following the club home and away, going through the ups and downs of being a supporter.
