Sir Bobby Robson 1933-2009


Sir Bobby Robson. A footballing legend, a national treasure and most of all, a true gentleman. He lived and breathed the beautiful game from childhood right until days before his sad death, when he attended an exhibition match arranged to raise money for his own cancer charity. Until the end, always thinking of how his enthusiasm could change other people's lives for the better.

There are few words to describe the warm feeling and loving grin you will see on anyone's face when they hear his name. A personality that cut through any club or national allegiance; something that has been seen this weekend up and down the nation in mourning.

RIP Bobby, you will be sadly missed.
