What does that mean, exactly?

What powers does that confer?

Is it just a mark of respect, or will Franny be able to break into someone’s home, nick their stuff and perhaps masturbate on their pillows?

Great honour, whatever the powers.

He was talking on the phone on Solent this morning…why isn’t The Echo all over this. The guy’s a fuckin’ hero…there should be a guard of honour for his arrival.

He’s Saint Francis…he does what he fuckin’ likes!

In London, Freemen can drive a flock of sheep over tower bridge and the rozzers are obliged to make sure they get home if they are found to be too wankered to do it by themselves.

Well deserved.

He should be allowed to carry his sword around and take his cattle over Itchen Bridge now.

Twitter answered that also Pap.

He’s looking around for a flock of sheep to drive through the Bargate.

Unfortunately, with Pompey being knocked out the FA Cup (& checkatrade) it’s unlikely to happen any time soon…

One of my true greats…along with Phil of the desert of Dubai.

Well done Saint Francis.
