Helen the bell ringer

As a kid in the early seventies, one of the first thing I remember hearing was the bell ringing. It became a symbol of City and I remember singing the songs. Great memories! RIP Helen
 
"Helen,Helen ring your bell!"
Do I remember that song?!

Seen her during the 91(?) season walking to the game,Fulll replica kit on.Bless you Helen,what did you look like?
purple skin tight shorts,enormous cleavage under that purple and white striped top and a huge blonde hairdo.

There'll never be another. No harm at all if a few heads decide to take and ring a bell at home games IMO
 
she ARRANGED FOR JOE CORRIGAN(my hero at the time) and ged keegan (remember him)to visit me when i was in mri so repect from me!

That would be a great honour to her memory..I will blub uncontrolably

blubbing at thought of it.

quite simply, for those of us old enough to remember her,

Helen=City

'helen Helen ring yer bell' is up there with City's greatest songs over the years imo.

lets hope she gets something to really ring her bell over tomorrow.

Can't add much more to these highly fitting tributes to a great lady but I'll add my memories of her.
She did attend COMS as I recall her sitting her last few games up in the disabled section of the North Stand, in the latter days at Maine Road she sat about 5 seats up from me in the Platt Lane; she would let on to us all every week and always exchange pleasantries.
I recall the last game at Maine Road, Big Joe Corrigan jumped over the wall to come and give her a big hug and kiss, lovely!

I remember many many years ago outside Maine Road, for whatever reason, I got chatting to her. She asked me my name [Helen]. She said to me, ok then, when I go, you should have my bell, another Helen should ring it!!!

Of course, no, that hasn't happened and there's no way I could take her place!

That tit at Pompey isn't worth 1% of our Helen! It's not so much his bell ringing, he has a sodding trumpet as well, doesn't he? That's the annoying thing about him! Toot-de-toot-de-tooooot! SHUT UP YOU DICK!
