Liverpool-born Colin came through the Junior ranks at Anfield and made his League debut at home to West Bromwich Albion on 25th August 1979.
A promising start continued in the next match with a headed goal at Southampton, even though Liverpool lost 2-3. But after appearing as a substitute against Nottingham Forest at the end of September, Colin lost his place and didn't feature in the first-team again in a League game until the following Spring.
In 1980-81 he made a further 21 League appearances but this was the last season that he featured as a first-team player for the club.
