Terence Keith "Terry" Twell (21 February 1947 – 27 February 2013) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham City.[1] He played as a goalkeeper.
Twell was born in Doncaster, which is now in South Yorkshire. He began his football career with Bourne Town, and turned professional with Birmingham City in October 1964.[2] Manager Stan Cullis gave him his debut in place of Jim Herriot in the Second Division on 14 October 1967 at home to Portsmouth. He was beaten by a 30-yard lob in that game, which finished as a 2–2 draw, conceded four goals in the next, and that was the end of his career in the Football League.[2] [3] He moved into non-league football with Stamford the following year,[2] and was on the books of Bromsgrove Rovers during the 1969–70 season.[4]
Twell died on 27 February 2013, aged 66.[5]
