RIP Great player who, as a 12 year old boy, I was lucky enough to see in the flesh in the 1969 FA Cup final.

Solid midfielder - saw him I believe at onion park way back when. RIP Mr Bell.

Its always a bit of a wake up call seeing players we watched as young boys passing away at a relativley advaced age realising that our time will, in the not to distant future, be up. A sobering thought

On the contrary, it's just driven me to have several drinks and think about writing a will - if we put together a team of those who died in 2020 and 2021 we would have a world beating team.

A "real footballer"

Watching the Italian Job last night and noticed 'Bell' painted on the side of their van.
