Is this image from when he went infront of the streford end signaling '3' and we went on to win 3-0?

Sorry if someone has already answered your question.

This photo was when he did it again but this time for Palace in front of the Chelsea fans.

He had balls of stell that man.
 
Old enough to have been around when he was at his best - true charisma. The type of character the game sadly lacks these days.

RIP Mal

From a Red. Brilliant manager and a larger than life character. For those who can't remember what he was like think of Mourinho but with a big fat cigar! As a Red I still get nightmares about his boys. Bell, Lee and Summerbee. Book, Corrigan, Doyle. 40 years on and I can still remember them that is how bad it was for me! Football would be nothing without people like Big Mal. RIP fella.

Restores your faith in the world, thanks.

Big Mal thanks for everything you did for my club, i remember Bell, Lee etc.
The smell of the cigars, cigs and pipes in the Platt Lane.
The confidence and pride in a team that played the game and won.
The era of 2 great teams in one city.
Years later when manager of Palace, walking onto the Maine rd pitch to a rapturous ovation.
Cheers and R I P
 
Very sad day but also one for us all to remember what a great man he was, along with Mercer and to be happy and thankful for what he did for us.

RIP Blue!

The mixed fortunes of Malcom always seemed suited to City. The club has moved on now, but it says a lot about his standing amongst us that now he's gone Big Mal has left such an empty space and so great a sense of loss.
