Posted February 26, 201411 yr http://www.derbycounty-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/colin_todd_to_have_heart_surgery_825927/index.shtml? For Rams star and manager, Colin Todd, is to undergo heart surgery in Denmark "http://pictures.footymad.net/upload/181/825927-1" title="C:WindowsTempphpEE49.tmp" width="300" alt="825927-1">Former Rams central defender and manager is to have heart by-pass surgery after experiencing pain in his chest at the training ground of Randers FC in Denmark, where he now manages the club. Todd was upbeat about his impending surgery, which will take place in Aarhus, explaining that hospitals in Denmark are better than the UK. An exact date for his surgery is not yet known but is thought to be in the near future. The Derby County legendary defender played 371 times for the Rams between 1970 and 1978 and formed a solid defensive partnership with Roy McFarland at the club and for England, playing 27 times. Todd also went on to manage Derby but it was not one of his more successful times at the club. He came as assistant to Jim Smith, and took over as manager for only three months.
February 26, 201411 yr "hospitals in Denmark are better than the UK" Couldn't be much worse. Good luck Toddo (as I'm sure Patrick Bamford calls you)
February 26, 201411 yr never had the chance to see him play, but from what i've gathered he seems to be a top pro
February 26, 201411 yr I had a car sticker that simply said "Colin Todd - God's Gift to Football". Apart from the fact that I am a devout atheist, I never read a truer word. Get well soon, Toddo.
March 13, 201411 yr Colin Todd has thanked well wishers. http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/Derby-County-legend-Colin-Todd-thanks-wishers/story-20806102-detail/story.html
