Remembering Colin Bell

King Colin.
My favourite City player of all time.

He was like a sort of Apollo out there on the green.

I set up a Facebook page recently dedicated to Colin's memory where blues can share memories and pictures etc of the great man.

That's a great photo, but it's strange, that looks much more like Rodney than Colin to me.

Incidentally, my first kit didn't even have the badge. Of any kind. I remember being so proud when I first put that on. And I always loved the maroon trim on the socks. Still miss a touch of maroon (not red).

Best ever City kit by far, the right shade of blue the shorts and socks exactly right all finished off with the best player I have ever seen play wearing it :)

My childhood hero. This was the first City top I ever had.

Sampadorias tribute to Viali ...Sadly Ancoats basin not quite as aesthetic for a tribute to the king.
