John Francis

JOHN FRANCIS Fast moving forward John is quickly became a crowd puller. Signed from Sheffield United during season 1989-90 by Frank Casper. Previously played for non-League Emley. Despite his often-comic ball control, John's pace became the weapon to unlock Fourth Division defences and he became a vital member of the championship-winning side of 1991-92. Two years later he became the hero of the team that won promotion to Division One, with two devastating goals in the away playoff leg at Plymouth. Unfortunately he never found his feet at Div 1 level and moved to Cambridge United.
