For those that haven't seen it
BBC's Football Focus tribute to Colin Bell

Missed that first time round so thanks for posting.
Lovely tribute, and thoroughly deserved.

Thank you for posting this tribute. I haven't a television so its much appreciated.

Thanks for posting that's brilliant. We are quick to hammer the Beeb, and rightly so, but that is a credit to them.
Not sensationalised just classy, like the man himself.

Love to see a bit of footage from his comeback game in 77, the atmosphere must of been amazing that day.

I don't think there can be any, otherwise it would have been posted in this thread well before now.

I understand and fully respect Colins family keeping details of Colins funeral private.
Im sorry this is the case though, as I really wanted to at least line the route of the cortège to show my respects.
RIP king Colin.

would make a great film the story of colin bell. much like billy elliot from rags to riches from the north east
and had to earn his corn at bury first then stardom and bright lights of manchester city of the swinging 60s and then the injury in the 70s and come back and sadly had to give it up

R.I.P the KING
