Career

Born in Middlesbrough, Bell was an apprentice at his hometown club, signing for them as a senior player in 1977.[1] However, after only ten league appearances in four years, he signed for Mansfield Town. He left Mansfield after two seasons, dropping into non-League football with Scarborough and becoming a policeman in Nottingham in April 1984.[1][2]

In 1987 he joined Cleveland Police, playing for the work cricket and football team, as well as the England national police cricket and football teams.[2] He subsequently became player-manager at Marske United. He left the club during the 2001–02 season to concentrate on his police career, but returned as manager in 2005.[3] He left the club in January 2008.[4]

Currently the President of Saltburn Golf Club. He now insists that his family and friends address him as El Presidente and can only see him if they make an appointment through his PA (formerly known as wife).
