| Francis Hamilton ( or Hamilton Dark to any readers of the late Roger Cross column in the Yorkshire Post) Life long supporter of The Trin,passed away tonight. Thoughts and prayers with the family. The trip to Catalan and the Cafe Vienna will never be the same.

| Devasted to hear this news, Francis was a massive Trinity fan with a fountain of knowledge of our fantastic club. Will always feel honoured and privileged to have shared his company and heard his comments, anybody who knew him would know he was never scared to offer his opinion.
RIP Francis, wont be the same without you

Still in a state of shock. Francis was indeed a character and great company ,the Priory will not be the same without him . So sad for the family who have suffered enough this year. RIP Francis will miss you loads xx

| I only talked with him this week, very very sad, a shocking year for his family with the loss of his beautiful daughter Liz, all our thoughts go out to Peggy, Andrew, Catherine, and Jane, we will miss him big time.

| A gentleman and a true Wakefield character. Always great company, a fantastic man. What sad sad news. Francis loved his sport, he was a very good cricket player in his youth and was extremely passionate about all things Trinity. Never shy of offering an opinion, he will be missed. If you ever find yourselves in The Redoubt and wonder into the little snug bar on the left as you come through the front door, have a look above the bar and you will see a photo of Francis, a good opportunity to toast a Wakey legend.

| I didn't know Francis that well but he was quite a figure head who you would allways notice at the games and was allways happy to chat about Wakefield I saw him in the priory quite a few times. This is very sad news and hes a huge loss.

It is "Fifita" not "Fafita"
If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed.
Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time.

| Shocking news. I knew Francis and he was indeed quite a lively character. Was once offered a chance to buy his volvo! His son was also in my year at Becketts.
Terrible news for what has been a difficult time for the family recently.
