    Really sad news. Terrific footballer, would have fitted into the modern game effortlessly.
    Apart from his football ability will always remember him for the Frosties adverts with 'Tony the Tiger'.

    RIP Colin Bell

    Remember him playing at WHU in 69, they did us 4 nowt, he ran the game, we played them about a month late at Maine Road and we won 5-1 on the worst pitch imaginable. I think even then he was still running
    Sad miss
    RIP

    An old favourite, sadly missed.
    A player always worth watching in a great Man City team
