had to bow out of a tele conference at work today when I got this news via text
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.

Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
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.'

Great Manager and Man and Geordie. RIP and thanks for the memories of 86 and 90.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
