Francis was never, ever going to stick around in the Championship

I was at Colney on the first day of pre-season training, he went straight into the building and collected his things and put them into his car.

Likewise Matt Jonson.

A guy said to Francis, "Are you staying then?" (it looked like the transfer talk was dying down after Pompey cooled their interest) to which he just laughed, and said in a sarcastic tone "Yeah, I'm staying, haha".
