ZLF 331 Posted July 31, 2009 The greatest English manager - club or country - I have witnessed, successful while playing football the way it should be played and with a sense of honour missing from any in the game today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minster Canary 0 Posted July 31, 2009 One of life''s absolute gems, always reminded me of my late grandfather. They''ve just had Freddy Shepherd on SSN saying when he joined Newcastle all he said was "Don''t worry about my salary at the moment, just let me take training today and for the rest of the week, the money talks can wait - football comes first."Enough said, he was all about the football. Sleep peacefully, Bobby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaun Tilly Lace 0 Posted July 31, 2009 One of the best as a football manager and, more importantly, as a human being. His England team played some excellent football out in Italy in the 1990 World Cup and came very close to winning the damned thing. RIP, Sir Bobby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fluff 0 Posted July 31, 2009 The world has just lost another genuine, honest and modest human being, and a great loss at that. Sir Bobby, you were one of the few gents left in the game with your integrity but your passion too and you will be missed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smudger 0 Posted July 31, 2009 What sad news this morning.Sir Bobby was a great man and a fantastic football manager who deserved even more success than what came his way.I have no doubts that if Bobby was a few years younger and had the players we now have to choose from then we would see England as World Champions.He took a pretty average side in my view (with the exception of us having a fantastic goalscoarer in Lineker) to the brink twice and there would of been no more fitting accolade than for this great man to of led us to glory in 1990.Always handled the criticism of the press in those days with so much decorum, which won him an awful lot of respect.RIP Bobby... this Norwich City fan has shed more than one tear for you coming to the end of your long battle against cancer.

ncfclad 0 Posted July 31, 2009 I never usually post on RIP posts, but this guy was truly a legend and will be a sad loss to the game.He is probably the first football legend to pass away during my time as a football supporter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marty 0 Posted July 31, 2009 Yet again I''ll reiterate what a true gent he was and what a sad loss this is. I think many people in the current world of football can learn a lot from him, even in his absense he leaves a pretty impressive legacy.I was having a good day until that news, funny how moved we can get by the loss of people that we don''t know yet still have such an impact on our lives.

JuanVelasco 27 Posted July 31, 2009 Just found out that he had passed away, very saddening news. A truly great passionate man who knew how to be nothing but a sincere gentleman.Its nice to see that everybody on this board is remaining respectful, I know that many Sunderland fans have not been on another forum which is a disgrace.Even Craig Bellamy got on like a house on fire with him, he is one of only a few men with no enemys.
