Career edit

Born in Alloa, of Italian descent,[2] Bertolini played for Alva Albion Rangers, Stirling Albion, Workington and Brighton & Hove Albion.[3]

Signed by Albion manager Billy Lane, Bertolini played at right half and had a spell of 193 consecutive appearances during his career at the Goldstone. A knee-ligament injury while turning out for the reserves ended his career in October 1965.[4]

After retiring, he managed Whitehawk[5] ran a pub in Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex,[6] and worked in the car and van hire business.[2]

He suffered from dementia and spent the last eight years of his life in a care home in Worthing, where he died on 21 June 2021, aged 87.[2]
