Brave man.
They say speed kills, but 97 ain't bad going.

Veteran of 3 foreign wars.

His X1 broke the sound barrier.

Airport in Charleston, West Virginia named after him.

Heck of a life.

Reading your Wikipedia link, Finmows it appears that they do have a Colin Bell Stand at the City of Manchester Stadium.

I came across this on another forum
Quote:
Now colin bell.
Another great player gone.
Remember when city asked fans to nominate a player, to have a stand named after them. Utd fans voted in their thousands to get it named after him.
The Bell end.

I think citeh realised their mistake very quickly.
