| I am saddened this morning to inform you that Billy Lea has lost his long battle against cancer and passed away this morning.
Billy was the groundsman at Hilton Park for many a year and was a great character.
RIP Billy my thoughts go out Hilda and his family and freinds.

| So very sad to hear this. Billy was a lovely man, and I spent hours chatting to him, and listening to his tales. Used to regularly bump into him, and Hilda when we were all on 'grandparent duties'.
RIP Billy, and thoughts to Hilda and family.
Alan.

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

| Very sad to hear this. My dad, sister & I used to stand with Billy on the terraces before he started videoing games. He always spoke whenever I saw him and he attended my dad's funeral a few years ago.
Condolences to his family. RIP Billy you will be missed by many.

| Very sad to hear this. Billy was always great for a story and worked with my dad many years ago. A tremendous character and a huge loss I'm sure.
RIP Billy.

| I worked with Billy, what a character, and what a groundsman, he used to boast he could grow grass on a coconut - and he could. He looked after the ground at Leigh Miners too in his later days and did a good job there. He was very good at his job, at the Council, Leigh Rugby and the Miners and he will be sadly missed by his family and all his many friends.

| Very sad at the passing of Billy and Maurice Jones, both of whom meant a lot to me. I'm trying to put together a personal tribute for next week's programme, but it isn't easy!
