Most Manchester City fans regard Colin Bell as the club's best ever player. He graced the midfield during their greatest years, as they won the League Championship, FA Cup, League Cup and European Cup-Winners' Cup, and represented England 48 times before a serious knee injury effectively ended his career when he was just 29.Now, in this revealing autobiography, 'King Colin' has opened up. He talks about never knowing his mother, who died while he was a baby; and of being brought up by his aunt and then his father and older sister. He then leads us through the glory years, singles out his greatest opponents and compares the modern game with the era he dominated, before giving his views on the tackle in a Manchester derby that ended his footballing dreams and could have cost him his life.With tributes from the likes of Malcolm Allison, Sir Geoff Hurst and Sir Bobby Charlton,COLIN BELL - THE RELUCTANT HERO is the life story of a footballer whose brilliance on the field demanded adulation but who was never comfortable in the spotlight, a player who truly preferred to let his feet do the talking.
