Bristol City owner Steve Lansdown has led the tributes to former CEO Colin Sexstone, who has died aged 74. A minute's applause was held before Saturday's match to honour the Bristol born and bred businessman for the part he played in the club's history.
Gloucestershire County Cricket Club also praised their former chief executive. Described as "eternally affable" he is credited with creating an international standard cricket ground.
Born in July 1948, Sexstone was educated in Luckwell, South Street and Colston School. He earned a Business Studies degree at the Bristol College of Commerce before joining the Royal Air Force.
