If he was 57 then he would have 16 when he became our coach driver. Even the dregs of journalism should have figured that couldn't be right. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had that exact thought yesterday because I'm 47 now and some of my earliest memories & newspaper cuttings have Jimmy around driving the bus and definitely not looking like he was only 10 years old than I was as a boy. The amount of love and respect being shown to him by current & ex players on social media says it all. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,299 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 The high regard he's held in by players, past and present, many of whom are club legends and/or have played in bigger, better leagues, speaks volumes about the kind of man Jimmy Bell was. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he has a suit (Ramsey is pictured in one) but there must have been a technical issue. No biggie as the lad is clearly upset in another photo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
