The Palace Fan 3,406 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Very sad news. Think his legacy will be his time as the first 1 million player to transfer between two English clubs at Forest, but that doesn't overshadow the rest of his career.

Michael 1,118 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 This is really sad news. Trevor Francis was an excellent footballer, but he was also a real gentleman off of the field. I always used to enjoy listening to him whenever he did interviews and when he was a pundit. I am obviously not old enough to have seen him play live on TV, but even as a kid in the 90's I enjoyed listening to the man. Trevor Francis was a real gentleman of the sport and it's really sad that he has died at the age of only 69. We have sadly lost another legend of the sport too early. My thoughts go out to his family and to his loved ones. RIP Trevor Francis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously never saw him play (like most of us), but liked listening to what he had to say on TV. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Palace Fan 3,406 Posted July 29, 2023 Author Share Posted July 29, 2023 He will always be remembered to me for the 5-0 win against Brighton and signing Andy Johnson. He also punched our GK at the time Kolinko because he was laughing when we conceded a goal (he had been dropped for this game), which seemed really out of character.
