I think you have a winner there already. Although he doesn't seem much different from Whing. He's a sound right back who has played centre back when neccessary. He's certainly more Whing than Calderon, and we already have a Whing. :)

Stated the other day that he didn't want to leave, although our money may tempt him.

Our money? Haven't you heard? We offer players a pittance. Atleast Bas Savage was offered a tank of petrol for his car!

That was when we hada chairman with no money times have changed and hopefully the standard of signings will also. So just forget seeing Whing in the stripes again he will be interesting Forest Green Rovers just accept it.

I heard it here first, Whing to Forest Green Rovers. ???

This is just the age old adage of, "just sign someone new. They're obviously better".

I must say I was very impressed with Francis last month, it just depends how consistent he is.

Francis is a good player and I was impressed with him up at Southend, but he is not the footballing right back we need/ want.

Steve Elliot released from Bristol Rovers because his wages were too high , but lets be honest rovers aren't exactly the richest club in the league are they ? i think it would be a decent signing .
