Bedminster-born footballing icon Billy
Fatty
Wedlock was the homegrown hero who rescued Bristol City from the doldrums & with his infectious skill and personality, elevated the club into the First Division for the first time in its history… He also took them to within a whisker of the League Championship title and a victory in the final of the FA Cup. A unique centre-half of diminutive proportions, what he lacked in inches he made up for in sheer talent - coupled with a superhuman work ethic. Nicknamed the
india rubber man , Wedlock played 26 times for his country, becoming in the process Bristol City’s original England international superstar. The supreme exponent of fair-play,&
modest to the point of shyness , Billy was the finest gentleman ever to walk onto a football field. No book has ever been written to tell the story of the most mythical and iconic figure in Bristol City’s history - until now.
