Re: RIP To Those Departed
Former Manchester City and England striker Francis Lee has died, aged 79.
Lee scored 148 goals in 330 appearances during an eight-year spell at City, helping the club win multiple honours, including the old First Division title in 1968.
Lee, who started his career at Bolton Wanderers, joined Derby County from City, helping the Rams win their second league title in 1975.
He also earned 27 caps for England, scoring 10 goals.
Remember this:



RIP Franny

Bobby Charlton is probably the last player to transcend what has become today's tribalism.

Re: RIP To Those Departed - Bobby Charlton
One of the very few Manure players I have nothing but respect for. Saw him play twice only but absolute legend and shoe in for an all time England 11... He was unplayable in Mexico 70
RIP Bobby, go sit with your brother
