Sad to hear of the passing of John (Willie) Wilton.
John was a very mobile, fast and skillful No 7 who played for Combe Down in the 60/70's.
He formed a formidable backrow partnership with Brian Ellis at No 6 and Roger Hillman at No 8.
Also in that team were Roger Willcox and Mike Dawes.
Ollie Strickland reminded me that in our younger days we were lucky enough to play some games with Willie.
As with all these older players they were more than happy to help and look after us younger ones.
Condolences to all the family especially Roy Wilton our old team mate.
