Billy Eames lived in Emsworth as a nipper, my great aunt lived just up the road. When we came down to visit relatives from London (where we lived at the time) played football in the road against him a few times.
Within a few years he was playing in St John's team.
Roughly 20 yrs ago came across him at Cams Hill School Fareham when my son got in to trouble at school :D .
Your right he didn't have a good word to say about St John.
He ended up Head of Sports Dept at Cams, last I heard he had retired.
