    Summary

    When Allan Hunter decided that the third Division was no place for an international of his promise Ipswich won the bidding war for his services. In addition to a fee they offered Bell, a raw boned, rugged individual who could slot straight into his spot. Less than two weeks later Crystal Palace offered £50,000 for Bell and Ken Furphy who wanted to rebuild his side, accepted the offer. Perhaps the decision was shrewd for no club ever extracted the latent promise from the player and he ended his career in the USA.
