Trevor Francis

[Cassandra]

The first million pound footballer in the UK, 1979. Sadly lost his devoted wife a few years back to cancer and succumbed to a heart attack in his Spanish home Sunday.

Thanks Trevor, a true gentleman from all accounts.

I knew the name Trevor Francis, but didn't know much about him so I Googled him.  Spotted this paragraph:

 I don't think he is finished signing the contracts for Forest and someone asks Trevor: "When do you expect to play?" Brian Clough intercepts: "When I pick him."

Good old Cloughie, what a manager !   

RIP Trevor.

I helped my team win a quiz when I could answer the question "who was the first £million football transfer".

Lol thanks Trevor, we'd have lost had it not been for you.
