Francis Lee RIP

[HelloCity]

Every time a legend passes I keep hearing the fabulous line from the Boys in Blue....


..... Maybe in a nother generation, when other lads have come to take our place..."

I'm fucking welling up now!

Brilliant player, was lucky enough to see him many times as a nipper. Was lucky enough to meet him a couple of times in later life as well. He came over as a thoroughly decent bloke. RIP Francis and thank you for the memories.

Me too, ain't it funny when it's a lyric on a song, we are proper us, and I mean proper, no other fuckers will ever understand what it's like being a Blue, never

Can't remember if Maine Road or Burnden Park but remember seeing him playing as a 16 year old.
RIP Franny.

Made his debut for Bolton at 16 years old on the right wing
RIP Francis Henry Lee.
