Always seemed like a really geuine bloke. RIP
RIP Sir Bobby....best Newcastle manager i can remember.
It was not a surprise, but it is still sad, a true giant in the British game.
He seemed to keep his love of the game going to the very end. He was at the EnglandXI/Germany match last Sunday, where the England side gained a little revenge, with a penalty winner!
I watched that game from St James Park llive on it4,he looked frail but he was still there showing his love of the great game as he always did!Quote:

Bobby was a god to me as a kid - I am a lifelong Ipswich fan since 1977 - and though expected it was a bit of a shock today.
Tonight I am going to watch my old Ipswich dvds - the cup final and the The Boys of '81.
Legend
Sir Bobby Robson is queueing outside the Pearly Gates, waiting with the other recently deceased to be let in to Heaven, when he is surprised to see a familiar figure with dark wavy hair and a sheepskin coat approaching Saint Peter.
"Look, young man," says the man loudly (and in a slightly nasal voice) to Saint Peter, "You need to change your attitude and work harder, or you're off the team. All right?"
Saint Peter says something quietly and deferentially to the man, who then strides off.
When Sir Bobby gets to the front of the line, he asks Saint Peter, "Wasn't that Brian Clough telling you off?"
"Oh no," Peter replies, "that was God, he just thinks he's Brian Clough."
I suggest we wait 3 days before making Sir Bobby Robson jokes. He might end up being the Messiah after all.
TRUE STORY.
--------------------
A bloke I knew loved Bobby Robson, so when his autobiography came out, he queued for a couple of hours to get Bobby to sign a copy at a local book shop.
When he got to the front of the queue, my mate said to Bobby as he was signing the book "I bet you've signed loads of these today Bobby" and he said "yeah lad, thousands".
When my mate got outside - he looked to see what Bobby had written.
'To John,
Best Wishes - Bobby Thousands.'
top bloke
