Deepest sympathy to Colins family.A very quiet guy. Fond memories. RIP Colin
I only heard this news belatedly. My condolences to the family. Back in 1977 Colin and I worked in the same small forestry crew and we were also both Excelsior players and supporters. I’ll remember him as a relatively quiet and unassuming guy with a love for race horses. Go well Colin.
