RIP Trevor Francis. A rare talent and a true gent.
Rare in what sense?
RIP Trevor ....you made my teenage years on Sat afternoons at St.Andrews...very enjoyable .
Rip Trevor Francis you are ' one in a million ' 🙏😢😢
Good one 👍
According to Cloughie it was £999,999,999
He's so true about John Robertson. Possibly the most under-respected player of all time in regards to achievement. A truly magnificent footballer. RIP Trevor
RIP Legend Trevor Francis, real gentleman also very popular in Italy 😢💔
Rest in peace Trevor Francis
A miracle man has fallen today. What he did for my team will never be forgotten. RIP legend.
Which team was that?
The term "legend" is banded about too easily these days but in the case of Trevor Francis that term is apt.
You will always be a legend at The City Ground........R.I.P Trevor and condolences's to the Francis family.
The definition of a true legend. Gone too soon.
The good ones always go first, SO SAD.
Extraordinary player and gentleman. One of a kind. Many thanks for sharing your talent with the world, Trevor Francis. May you rest in peace. 🙏🏼🌟
What a lovely man Trevor Francis. A very very talented footballer who had great pace and scored goals.
RIP Trevor Francis ❤
What a great story and his respect for his team mates, Cloughie and Taylor whilst so unassuming regarding his major influence and goals for the team. A different type of player then and gone too young.. Thanks Trevor
Rest in peace to a fabulous footballer Mr Frances. Luckily I’ve had the privilege to watch him play. My deepest condolences to his family & friends 😢
Francis* It's puzzling how you can spell his name wrong when it's literally on the video title.🙄
@@CB-xr1eg not really puzzling, I just didn’t notice that I spelt it wrong.
Birmingham legend and footballing icon I can still see him hugging AJ crying absolutely loved the club and any club he went to he was loved RIP Trevor and KRO
A great player and a lovely and humble man.
Blessed to have seen him wearing Man City colours.
R.I.P.
He changed city under John bond he was our leader and him and Kevin reeves were a great partnership with Denis tueart and Paul power the season of 81/82 was a good time for city fans going to Maine road ..C.T.I.D..1977🏴
"Now then young man , what you doin' here so early " ? Cloughie talking to Trevor at the pearly gates. r.i.p Mr Francis .
RIP to an absolutely beautiful footballer and a beautiful man, he certainly made our team Nottingham Forest which was great, even better ❤️
RIP Trevor Francis a true Legend ❤
A sad day for every true Birmingham City Football Fan R.I.P Trevor.
Forest fan*
@TheKullzeditz I'm a Forest fan. My Mum is Birmingham City, he was loved there. She met him a few times at a local pub to her and said he was so down to earth and nice to everyone. She even has a single he released about the blues. Sheffield Wednesday fans love him too and rightly so.
@@K33f11 Sorry a meant Forest Fans AND Birmingham City Fans
@@thekullsedits It's ok, I think everyone loved Trevor Francis.
A true gentleman ,can never be thanked enough by Forest fans for the Malmo goal . Me and my brother's met the European winning Forest squad literally 2 weeks ago unfortunately Trevor was not there.😪😪
Only Birmingham player who frightened the hell out of me when he played my team Villa. Played us on his own at times quality footballer RIP Trevor
I'm a blues fan, I want to say a big thanks for your comment.
respect
Born in Plymouth...Not one mention on the local news..Hopeless disrespectful producers..Good bloke Trevor.
To be fair. He never mentioned or associated himself with plymouth after he left. He lived just down the road from me in the 60s as a kid. He first came to my attention when he starred in a plymouth schools team that reached the england national schools final. Someone at birmingham city spotted him during the run and the rest is history. Local boys who played against him at the time said that his great strength was his lightning pace and speed off the mark.
Forest Legend. My first Hero of football.
RIP TREVOR
LEGENDS never die , one of the greatest Englishman to play the game, rapid off the mark due to being a cross country runner thanks Trevor
Keep right on trev 💙
I had the pleasure of watching him play for Birmingham for years, the European final may have been his most memorable match, but he played many better matches for us. The best player of his generation, a real genius, in a time when that word is used far too often. Thanks for the memories Trev.
An outstanding player playing in a great team for the greatest manager in the game - a recipe for success
The greatest manager in the game? Francis never played for Bob Paisley to my knowledge.
Top man Tricky Trev. Really decent guy. Thanks for your time at SWFC and your management and finals you got us to. Gormless directors sacked the guy after we finished 9th in the top division!!!. Look where we are now?
Sad day, RIP Trevor. I was 7 watching him score the winner against Malmo, still my overiding soccer memory. Forest Legend, gone too soon
What a GREAT example of a man and a football legend ...RIP ⚽️⚽️⚽️
RIP, a real Legend. 2 European Cups including the winner in a final. A gentleman too.
We will never forget that goal and that game it made history and few players make history! But I have a sneaking feeling BCFC was the first result he looked for! And of course Sheff Wed was close to his heart..a true football man God bless! From all at NFFC
We Blues fans know we need to share him with the Forest fans. He was amazing at St Andrews and carried us on his back for years I was gutted when left but he also made me a Forest fan as a second team. He will always be a favourite of mine in fact one of my sporting heroes. RIP Trevor and thanks for all the wonderful memories
@@neilpountney9414 Bang on KRO
Why would he look for Bristol City's result?
@@CB-xr1eg LOL
@@CB-xr1eg good one ! may football banter never cease 👍
Rest in peace Trevor, you were a class footballer, and I always found your conversation engaging and informative. I always enjoyed your stories about the legendary Brian Clough. Thank you Trevor Francis. Well worth the million.
many clubs he played/managed and showing their respects.. BUT he was a honary brummie.. god bless you trev..
One of the good guys in a cesspit R.I.P Trevor.
Such a legend so sad,RIP Trevor Francis,what a player,what a man
Bluenose Legend Birmingham City fans in mourning KRO , Trevor top top man
RIP Trevor. Always spoke well,honestly and came across as a gent.
Even as a Celtic fan I loved it when he came up to Scotland to play for Rangers and was in fact a bit jealous wishing he had signed for Celtic RIP Trevor
RIP Trevor Francis, thanks for so many wonderful memories.
RIP Trevor Francis legend footballer and manager also Chris Bart Williams both loved and appreciated at SWFC and NFFC
Tricky Trev, superb player and manager, plus a really nice guy. SWFC 💙⚽️
15 year old watching from the Tilton Road mesmerised by Trev RIP Blues legend.
From a Blades fan a quality footballer and a true gentleman R.I.P and thank you so much for the memories ⚔️⚔️⚔️
I was working in Munich at the time of that match and it’s to my eternal regret that I didn’t go to the game. A couple of my English workmates went and found themselves seated next to the late great James Hunt.
RIP Trev.
As a Liverpool supporter i absolutely loved this player i hated him when we played Forrest but what a player i just wished he played for us but Trevor god rest your soul in my eyes you were an amazing person and player
R I P
He mentioned Liam Brady another fine player who I heard Bob Paisley had tried to sign for the Reds.
RIP King Trev. Greatest days At Blues, saw your first home match v Oxford Utd, great equaliser! KRO! Trev!
Rip an absolute legend. He will score many more in heaven!!!
I understand Trevor's choice for this but I will never forget him at Leicester on the ice when Blues won 6-2.
Kenny won the TR7 but Trevor was like a ballet dancer, whilst everybody else were flat on their backs! Then watched it again ON MOTD 'cause I couldn't believe it the first time! RIP Tree or. 😢
Sorry Trev for the typo!
I was at that game too, & Keith Weller in his tights, magical days. RIP King Trevor & kro😢
As a Villa fan I used to dread seeing him line up against us. Fabulous player, RIP.
RIP Trevor, a true legend and a gentleman. We will never forget you.
Great footballer. respect from Scotland.
Great player and leaves me with so many memories of the great days.
Honoured to see him play...rest in peace sir ....from a Millwall supporter
As a scotsman i always liked trevor Francis, what a player, Respect.
Another giant of the game has left us too early....Godspeed Trevor
Nice words, nice man, super talent.
One in a million.. RIP
Another legend passes.
Rest In Peace Trevor, fram a Tranmere Rovers fan
R.I.P Trevor Francis. A true sportsman and a gentleman too. So soft spoken and good to listen to. My family were BCFC fans and Trevor was soo loved! Plus the first £1,000,000 player. Great days. ❤👌⚡️
Great partnership with Bob latchford , hat trick at 16 , so quick , very sad news . Such a gentleman.
Great player! Great Man. RIP Mr Trevor Francis. I’m sad.
Really gonna miss Trevor I always loved listening to him 😔
RIP, Mr Francis
What a player RIP Trevor!
RIP Trev. Your legacy will live on forever.
Rip Trevor John Francis, you will be missed
I remember him playing for my team, Man City. We were struggling at the time and it was a pleasure to watch him, he was like a Rolls Royce in a team of Trabants.
Love you forever Trevor Francis from a Rangers fan. ♥️
Trevor said this about Forest ' we were good with the ball but even better without it'. I don't think many youngsters would quite understand what that meant.
I spoke with Trevor back in 1999, a true gentleman & gladly took the time out of his day to have a chat
Rest in peace Trevor 💔
God bless his soul , he gave many people pleasure and comes across as a good human
A true blue nose. Rest in peace, Keep right on💙
💟💟💟💟💟
RIP Trevor.... one of my favourite players of my youth and a thoroughly decent guy. I always remember seeing him on TV as a manager after Birmingham lost to Liverpool on penalties in the League Cup in 2001 and how heartbroken he was , after losing his third cup final as a manager. Thankfully he enjoyed great success as a player and given a wee bit of luck could have won the World Cup in 1982 , when he was probably at his peak.
RIP Trevor Francis a blue legend
KRO King Trevor
RIP Trevor Francis...😢

ABSOLUTE STAR ❤❤❤❤
Francis, just a great bloke. RIP Fella.
Another part of my youth gone, great player 😥
RIP Trevor - Legend.
As a Birmingham fan he will always be remembered as one of our own regardless of all the other clubs he played for .
£1 million for 2 European Cups? Mbappe fanboys...are you reading this? THAT'S value for money. RIP, Trev!
Much respect...great player, great man..R.I.P 👍
Wonderful interview
Just heard the news , what a class man and a true class footballer. RIP
Legend...RIP🔴⚪🔵
RIP Trev. Some of my greatest memories as a football fan are tied to you.
Absolute gent!
BCFC Hero!!
😢
R.I.P. Trevor. A True Legend. 😭
I thought I'd never seen him play 'live' until I was going through some old match programmes recently and found he was in the Man City team beaten 3-1 at home in the F.A. cup by Coventry City (my team) in 1982. He was anonymous in that game, which obviously had an effect on the outcome.
Master of his craft. God bless Trevor.
Hard to believe he's gone. RIP.
Shocked to hear about Trevor’s death. Always came across as a very level headed guy, as a player and as a pundit. Life can be so unfair.
RIP Trevor, nothing but respect
