About Bill Coldwell
- William Rodney Coldwell (4 June 1932 – 8 December 1995) was an English football manager and scout. Born in Petersfield, Hampshire, Coldwell played football for Weymouth and also played two first-class cricket matches for the MCC against Cambridge University in the mid-1950s.He was employed as a scout by Birmingham City, but acted as caretaker manager on two occasions.
- The first time was for three games between the departure of Dave Mackay and the arrival of Lou Macari in early 1991; Birmingham remained unbeaten under his management. After Macari walked out in June 1991 to join Stoke City, Coldwell again took over as caretaker, this time persuading a significant number of out-of-contract players to re-sign (and not leave the club with Macari), and supervising pre-season training until the appointment of Terry Cooper in August 1991.In April 1993 he replaced Len Ashurst as manager of Southern League Weymouth.
- Unable to prevent relegation to the Southern Division, he stabilised the club and achieved a mid-table finish with a young side in the 1992–93 season, but was sacked in September 1993.Coldwell died in Bristol at the age of 63.
