Sam Bell reveals his next Bristol City target, 18 years after his old man Micky scored in Wales

Sam Bell was just two-years-old when his old man scored his final goal for Bristol City.

It had been 18 years, one month and 28 days between Micky Bell's strike and Sam grabbing his first for the Robins. Both came on Welsh soil with Micky scoring from the penalty spot in a 3-1 victory away at Wrexham in front of 7,833 at the old Racecourse Ground.

Brian Tinnion was the manager of City during that time and both would have been celebrated in equal measure by the Technical Director, who has helped nurture and develop the striker through the youth set-ups having joined the club aged 12.
