I thought it was a Jock thaang not to get him, I wished him no ill but found his act a bit pathetic. In the end, someone ages with me gone too soon. :|

I quite liked him actually. I suppose he appealed to me in the same way that Half Man Half Biscuit do. RIP Frank :(

I only found out about Frank dying yesterday. I wonder if they'll have a minutes silence at Timperly FC.
