Condolences to Chris's family.

Love him or loathe him, he was part of Alty's history.

He would be laughing all the way to the garden shed in the sky if he knew he had made the front page of the BBC News

RIP Frank

Yes, echo most of the sentiments above, a great shame and too young.

Some of his antics didn't endear him to the club or fans however in his earlier days as Frank I believe he raised the profile (pre-Spurs/Lincoln etc)

I remember seeing his sort of punk band "The Freshies" at Sale Civic Hall in about 1977. The review actually made Sounds newspaper, on the same page as Kiss in somewhere like Los Angeles I think it was!
I also saw him in London as Frank playing the now sadly closed Cricketers by The Oval, must have been about 1989. A good night, still remembered by my bemused missus. RIP and hope your mum looks after Little Frank.

Anyone who makes a living out of wearing a paper mache head has to be admired ..i do agree his humour was very hit or miss ..i remember some tv clip of him beating the crap out of little Frank and it had me rolling around in tears but some of the other stuff made me cringe...

Very much a british eccentric and a sad way to go

Frank posted on his website on May 12th he had cancer.  D.A. Alty posted his message the day after Frank had told the world of his illness. So he possibly knew when he posted his message of Franks illness - he didnt wish it on him, Frank already had it. Best to dismiss his comment altogether and give it no more reference.

Very sad news indeed. This was Frank's final musical contribution, "Three shirts on my line", his World Cup song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxcS3OUrgUk Brilliant.

Why drag this up again you cock? His post had nothing to do with him having cancer,he was just pointing out that he wasn't best loved at Alty.  RIP Chris.
