Yes very sad day that. Bert us the reason I have been an ardent City fan since 1957. For me the best goalkeeper I have ever seen.

Great bloke.
I remember as an excited nipper who lived a stones throw from Maine Road once waiting outside the main entrance to collect autographs.
There was a bunfight round most players but Bert made us all line up and told us he would only give us one autograph each.
We all did what we were told instantly of course.
As Paul Whitehouse said it’s the accent makes you obey!

Simply the best.

My hero used to watch from the scoreboard end so I could see him better
