castle boy Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 When Colin played during the 1950's the maximum wage for a professional footballer was £20 a week. With Colin being an exceptionally good singer he supplemented his wages by singing in pubs and working mens clubs throughout South Yorkshire.
