Incredibly sad news. Needless to say, a genuine legend and the man who scored the most iconic and important goal in the club's history. RIP Trevor.

Very sadly, the great man has passed away aged 69 following a heart attack.
So many wonderful memories.

Have very fond memories of bouncing up and down on our sofa when he scored against Malmö. A few miles away in Derbyshire my other half was bouncing up and down like me, but he fell off and broke his arm. He was very proud of his Trevor Francis cast.
I can’t believe that he was only 69. Rest in peace Sir Trev. Forever a Forest legend.

What can I say-I’m devastated.
I met some Birmingham City supporters whilst in Munich for the 1979 European Cup final-of course,they
had all come to see their hero.
R.I.P. Trevor and thanks for the fantastic memories.

One of the heroes of my childhood. Not certain how many times I pretended to be him while playing pickup games. RIP Trevor. You were a special player.

Rest in peace Trevor. So shocked and saddened to hear this. Thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time. Can't find any other words really.

Was explaining who Trevor Francis was (and what he meant) to one of my sons just yesterday.

Lovely long piece from SSN just been on for Trevor. Lovely segment and words from presenter Kaveh who seemed to have a genuine interest in Trevor and his career. Think he might be a QPR fan himself

Gutted. It’s a uniquely heartbreaking feeling when one of your sporting heroes passes away, especially at such a young age. Bless you TF and thanks for the greatest moment in our history.

Always knew that one day the men who made Forest into legend would start to pass away.
Still absolutely devastating news when it happens.
Others have said all that needs to be said really. Scorer of one of the two most important goals in Forest's history and an all time great striker.
God bless you Trevor. May you rest in peace, Thank you for everything.

So sad to hear this, one of the all-time Forest greats. Immortalised for that goal in Munich.

I was 12 when he put that header home. What a night to be a young Forest fan.
Surprised how sad I am about this. Tears shed. RIP.

I still have a scar on my left hand from that night in 1979. I was so pissed on cider that I fell over a barbed wire fence on the way home and cut my hand open.

RIP Trevor, I may not have been born when you won us the cup, but I understand how much you mean to this clubs history both on and off the pitch!
