Goodby Sir Bobby

Hi, it’s not often I post on here - check regularly, but rarely post unless it's to offer (or seek) help, but today has been a sad day for football fans. Sir Bobby Robson has been a great advocate for football and it would be a shame to let his passing go un-noticed in the forums. Sir Bobby achieved a huge amount as a football player, although I’m too young to have experienced this first hand, I can appreciate all he brought to the lovely game as a manager and advocate. As manager of Newcastle (and I live in Newcastle) I learned to respect him as a dignified and esteemed member of the community – so many fans... Newcastle, England, Ipswich and Barcelona amongst the few... will all miss him. So tonight – R.I.P and god bless you Mr/Sir Bobby Robson... Player, Manager, Advocate... For those who don't follow the lovely game.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/8178079.stm
