RIP Bobby Robson (1 Viewer)

[Con]

Bobby Robson has passed away. He'd been battling cancer for years. Always seemed like a lovely guy. Just spotted it on the football365.com homepage.

poor bobby, had cancer 5 or 6 times. shame he had to watch newcastle implode like that. they should never have sacked him, obviously, fucking idiots. they deserve all they get. anyway, that's for another day. uncle bobby played in that famous game in the world cup in brazil 1950 where england lost to usa usa usa 1-0. brought ronaldo to europe. taught jose mourinho everything he knew. stan staunton, less so.

c ya uncle bobby. peace out.

He always seemed to carry himself with dignity especailly when he was at that shambles of a club, Newcastle or shadowing that absolute disaster of a manager, Stan.

He was a proper English football man.
Just exceptionally so.

That's a pity, always seemed like one of the classiest, most likeable guys in football, rest in peace Bobby.

76 is a good age but still a shame.

 

[I Bleed Black]

Probably one of the few people in football that not person would have a bad thing to say about. RIP Bobby

 

[Stan Bowles]

Poor Bobby, best manager England have had in my lifetime, and he still got stick at the time from the retarded English media. RIP.

Found elsewhere ...

Journalist to Shola Ameobi: Do you have a nickname at the club?
Ameobi: Not really, no
J: So what do the lads call you?
SA: Shola
J: And what about Sir Bobby? What does he call you?
SA: Carl Cort.
(You have to be a football fan to get that).

But our favourite has to be this one.
Bobby is at a book-signing in Newcastle. Little kid gets Sir Bobby to sign his book after queuing for ages.
'Have you signed a lot of books today, Sir Bobby?'
'Oh, hundreds, son. Absolutely hundreds'
Kid walks off with his signed book, and glances down at the inscription; 'Best Wishes, Bobby Hundreds.'

EDIT: Couple more stories:
Gathering the England team at the airport before they went abroad for a friendly, Sir Bobby got into a bit of a flap when he realised Peter Reid wasn't in the departure lounge. After a frantic search yielded nothing, he asked one of the coaching staff, 'Where's Reidy got to? We can't leave without him!' 'Er, you didn't pick him, boss...'


-----------



And the time he got in a lift with Bryan Robson, turned to him and said: "Morning Bobby."
"Err no boss, I'm Bryan YOU'RE Bobby."

Found some good stuff. The second clip here is amazing. Pretty much unrelated to Bobby Robson of course.
