I think anyone working under Deacon would have had a hard time back then. I think Dave Pullar & Keith Viney were probably in the team around that time as well.
I was living in Emsworth back then & believe he occasionally went in the Bluebell on South Street.
I also met him at a Golf Day I helped organise for CEOs at Wentworth & he was the guest player & after dinner speaker.
He could have got his agent to cancel but although he had a bad leg injury he still turned up & played the full 18 holes. He gave a great after dinner speech & took loads of Qus. A real nice guy & a legend of a player with a GSOH.
Condolences to his family R.I.P. Saint.
