Scottish Journalism I am afraid. He was indeed 69. 

 

 

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.

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.

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.

Powerful image. Poor Dallio didn't get the memo I see...

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.
