Colin Bellwood

Long serving fan passes away

Darlington FC is sad to learn about the death of long serving fan Colin Bellwood.

Colin was a fan for over 50 years, and his son-in-law Kevin Wray said; “He had three wishes; one was for Darlington to get to Wembley, another to move to a new ground and the third one to be in the Premiership, two did happen but the latter didn’t.
“Not a bad word came  from Colin about DFC  and he wouldn't let anyone have a bad word said about his club either.”

Colin will be laid to rest in his Darlington shirt. His funeral is on Wednesday 23rd October, in St John's Church Neasham Road, Darlington, at 10.45am.

Our sincere condolences go to Colin’s family at this very sad time.
