Here’s an interesting film of Colin Bell in action for Manchester City against West Ham on this day (14 January) in 1978. The commentary is from a much later feature but it’s worth hearing and watching this clip to get an appreciation of how we all felt about Colin at this time. We desperately wanted him to be in another trophy winning side and to be the player he’d been only a few years earlier before that horrific injury.
The game was a 3-2 City victory with goals from Peter Barnes, Brian Kidd and Tommy Booth.
