Sir Bobby Robson (1933–2009)


Recommended Posts

Happy Birthday, Bobby :)

 

I often wonder if his team was actually better than Keegan's, he just had much tougher competition (Wenger's Arsenal, Chelsea with Abramovich etc). Maybe that's just bias because I can only remember his team  :dontknow:

Quite a late reply after just seeing this but it absolutely wasn't.

Unfortunately I never got to see his team play, but I met him at the Aston Martin garage up near Beamish. I was only a really young bairn but I remember how nice of a man he was. So privileged to have met him.

It's a nice touch that they keep his 2 seats at SJP for either family members or for anyone from the foundation. If the seats aren't used, they get left empty as a sign of respect.
