Just seen it on COWS that our old captain and number 5 has died.
He seemed a gentleman centre half and captain from my memory.
AFC Bournemouth are saddened to learn of the death of Tony Nelson, aged 92, a man who gave the club loyal service in various capacities during 19 years at Dean Court.
He played 195 league games before assisting boss Freddie Cox and then became chief scout and caretaker manager for a short period in 1975.
