Colin Bell RIP - Ian Cheeseman interview with Jon Bell (P142)

Frannie Lee once said that England only made three defensive mistakes in two the World Cups, '66 and '70.

The problem was, they were all in the same game!
Lol yeah I suppose. They'd have given Brazil a better game in a potential final than italy did anyway.
 
5th January was already a sad day in our household, as it was my mum's funeral at Stockport Crematorium, after she died of Covid in Salford Royal. Yesterday would have been her 86th birthday. Went out for a quick walk with the wife in the early evening, only to hear about the passing of Colin from my son on our return. What a terribly sad day, RIP mum and the King of the Kippax
My deepest condolences on the loss of your mum.
 
At the time of the World Cup I believed Charlton was being played because who he was and what he’d done, he was in decline and denied Colin many caps.
 
Is it right he was never booked, simply because he never used offensive, insulting or abusive language to a ref?
Surely he was booked for that tackle by that **** Buchan or is refereeing worse these days?BTW a statue is the least he deserves and a memorial service when all this is over so we can give him the send off he so richly deserves
