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

Keeper! said:
Agreed, more consistent and greater work rate and that is not knocking KDB in anyway, it's just a fact that Colin Bell was an exceptional player.

The injury destroyed not only Colin's career at the peak of his powers but Manchester City FC. We were a very good side at the time of the injury, constantly challenging for honours, afterwards it all went very, very wrong as we all know.

With Peter fucking Swales in charge, it would have gone wrong eventually, whether Colin had sustained that injury or not.
 
With the thread on Colin Bell I started to look up some of the other City players from the same era. When I came to a fellow Scouser Tony Coleman it seems like he has disappeared off the face of the earth. Remember being a really good player for 2 or 3 seasons but then he seemed to go missing. Anyone any idea what happened to him . It appears he was a bit of a smoking gun in his day .
 
He must have been some player if he was like an even better version of kdb

One of my brothers was named after him.

You can judge a person by the footprints they leave behind.

Colin Bell left footprints beyond the football pitch, he touched the lives of so many people he never even met.

The fact he did so, there can be no greater testament, he was a great man, first and foremost.

Life isn't measured by the medals or money by your bedside, he went out a class act.

No fuss, fighting right to the end.

RIP, Colin The King.
