what is the connection between Trevor Francis and Millwall?

Del Boy is supposed to be a Lion but the shows song says

"Trevor Francis tracksuit from a mush in Shepherds Bush" ????


Always wondered this and finnally got the balls to ask, so if anyone knows please tell

We've got some half price cracked ice and miles and miles of carpet tiles,
T.V.s, deep freeze and David Bowie L.P.s,
Ball games, gold chains, whassa-names, and at a push,
Some Trevor Francis track suits from a mush in Shepherds Bush,
Bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush ...
No income tax, no V.A.T.,
No money back, no guarantee,
Black or white, rich or poor,
We'll cut prices at a stroke...
God bless Hooky Street,
Viva Hooky Street,
Long live Hooky Street,
C'est magnifique, Hooky Street,
Magnifique, Hooky Street,

The theme song is describing what merchandise Del Boy and Rodney sell; Trevor Francis used to play for Millwall...and the word "mush" is slang for friend or mate. So the meaning is they acquired Trevor Francis tracksuits to sell on from a friend or mate who lives in Shepherds Bush.

Hope this helps gaz

My apologies gaz, your are right Trevor Francis never played for Millwall...i guess when the lyrics of that song were made he was the most high profile football player in England so they chose his?

I thought i better admit i was wrong about this before Lion 1 and Claw point out that i am talking rubbish
