Fraser Franks

[Beat Poet]

He's obviously contracted to AFC Wimbledon these days, but he's currently on loan at Newport for a month. I bet now they've made the FA Trophy Final he'll be hankering to spend the rest of the season there!

Wasn't he one of the Krays rivals from Saaff London?

Frankie Fraser... I think his son played for B&HA. You may be thinking of Ginger Marks, though, rumoured to be close to Lionel Road...

 

[North London Bee]

Tommy Fraser!!

 

[brighton bee]

He was his nephew. I played football against him a few times at school. Good player back then!

Announced his retirement due to a heart issue.

[RodBee]

Sad for the lad. I thought he had something promising but it never materialised.

 

[Beat Poet]

He looked destined to become yet another AS-era youth teamer, who made a handful of appearances (or no appearances at all) and seemed destined to disappear into oblivion, but he came through all that and had a very good career. The other youth teamers who were around the first team squad at the time were such luminaries as Lloyd Anderson, Lewis Ochoa, Lewis Ferrell and James McCluskey.

 

[moribee]

That is so sad but also a blessing he can now look after himself

Newport County v Chelsea Development Squad 24 July 2019.

The visit to Rodney Parade in south Wales will mark a benefit game for Fraser Franks, the former Chelsea Academy defender who played for Newport this season. The 28-year-old was forced to retire from playing football in March on medical advice because of a heart problem.

Really interesting blog by him here on our, erm, esteemed, class of ‘07. All jokes aside fair play to them, they have all done really well for themselves:

Interesting, thanks for sharing that.

 

[amersfoort bee]

That is very good. Glad that so many of our ex youngsters have done so well for themselves.

That was a good read. Good stuff.

 

[Herbert]

Fair play to him. That is a good read. I reckon he'd be a good go to person for youngsters who are in that situation

[Mulitinovic]

Fraser is doing a fantastic podcast - Football Journeys - looking at the underbelly of the game, starting with the Liverpool youth team of 2013/14 and where they’ve all ended up (we obviously have one of them in our ranks). There are some extraordinary stories in there, well worth a listen.

Been following this story on Instagram and seems as if his heart vale issue was a lot more serious and he had barely any blood pumping through his body and very lucky he isn't already dead.
