Waghorn on Francis

"Damien Francis added to his season of legend with a thunderous left foot volley from the edge of the Baggies? box, that flew inside Russell Hoult?s right hand upright and duly sent the vast majority of supporters within Carrow Road wild with delight.It was the City midfielder?s seventh goal in 13 Premiership games and merely begs the question as to whether City would still be struggling at the foot of the table had he not been sidelined of those six games with his broken cheekbone".

and

"Francis is the biggest disgrace.............Much of this will be repeated in the bitter post-mortems that will inevitably follow, but there is a school of thought that would have hauled Francis out as soon as his enthusiasm waned. Sometime around the beginning of February for my money"

Nothing to disagree with there - but what happened in the days follwing the WBA game because that's when it all went tits-up with Damo?
