RIP Trevor Francis

[Kelt]

What a footballer!

Still remember seeing him on a bus, he was sixteen and had just made his debut for Birmingham City, I was fourteen and on my way to school!

Talk about two different worlds.

RIP and only 69

Very sad news.

I think the media are saying he was the first £1 million player.

It was like another era in football back then.

RIP

Yes he was. A lot of money at the time

I remember his £1 million transfer fee and watching him, on TV, scoring the winning goal in the European Cup Final in 1979. So long ago now.
