This is a great shock. Absolute legend of this football club regardless of what happened in his chairmanship. A sad day for MCFC. RIP Franny :(

RIP Franny loved you, you Colin and Buzzer give me great memories

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Too young to remember him playing, but will he ever thankful for his ousting of Swales and his selling the club before it got too bad.

Seeing the highlights of his goals and the energy with which he played, I can see how he was such an idol for so many.

Thanks for everything, Francis. Condolences to his family and friends.

Only Summerbee and Coleman left now of that 67/68 title-winning forward line.

When he appeared in the main stand against Ipswich and got that hero's welcome. I knew why my old man loved him.

RIP
