Feel free to re-read my post. It would helpThey've had a Colin Bell stand for years
Was a great player, one of the best when I was a child. Sad to see this news.
Mick McCarthy's been sacked by Apoel Nicosia after just 8 games. Won one, drew two and lost five.

Both correct decisions, which is nice.
Burton have sacked manager Jake Buxton
Here's hoping that new manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink either plays Jack Roles, or sends him back so he can get some playing time somewhere

I was pleased to hear Burton had re-appointed Jimmy Floyd. It means I no longer have to endure listening to him on Sky. As a pundit he was truly effing awful.
I never saw Colin Bell play live, and as was the nature of football in the 70s, I probably saw him play on the TV for England more than for City.
Always a class act, graceful box to box player with an eye for a goal.
2 games that I particularly remember him playing in were the 1-1 draw with Poland that saw us fail to qualify for the WC finals in 74, where we battered the Poles but only scored a penalty but I do recall Bell played that night with great authority. I also recall a match with Scotland at Wembley a couple of years later where we battered them 5-1 under Don Revie, Bell played with Alan Ball and Gerry Francis in a very dynamic midfield that on the day were unplayable Bell scored and Francis scored 2 in a very memorable Home International Match.
Great Player RIP
