If true, terrible news. No nonsense chap.

RIP Frankie

It was only yesterday i had a conversation about my top 5 fav Swans Managers of all time and he was one of them. Maybe not as successful as most but enjoyed his management style

I was thinking of him the other day as someone mentioned streets by the old Vetch, Burrows Road being one of them.

Legend.

One of my favourite managers. Absolutely gutted to hear this.

He came up with some great quotes.

"man United have Eric cantona, we have Colin west and will endeavour to entertain"

Close to 30 years ago we played York away. We got there early and decided to park the car by the ground and walk into the city centre. Just as we walked past the ground the team bus turned up with Frankie and the kitman. Seeing my son in his top he came over and spoke to us for what was about half an hour. A perfect gent. RIP Frankie and thanks for the Wembley memory amongst others.
