kirkwdavis2001 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 One of the men who remind me why I love this football club, despite all that is going on with it now. It's a far cry from when Bobby was manager, but there will be a day when the club is ran competitively once again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Doesn't seem five years since I sat in the Gallowgate to see Sir Bobby at his charity game. Although we didn't know it, it was his farewell. RIP Sir Bobby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I wonder what he'd make of the current squad? Something tells me he'd spent 2 years totally rebuilding it. One word: Pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 It'll be a long time before we have anyone of his ilk involved with our club again. A true inspiration. Love that Mourinho picture Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Sir Bobby. A group of us had a chat after the game in the pub and pretty much agreed we'd not see him again. I thought this was the majority view that this was his swansong?

Mole_Toonfan Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 R.I.P to the last manager we had who made us proud. There's not many past figures in football that I miss but he's one of them, thank you for all the memories. Can't believe it's been 5 years though, time sure does fly.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Utter legend. Pissed off that Lee Ryder has referred to him as "the Geordie godfather" - completely wrong choice of words. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ndegwa Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Utter legend. p*ssed off that Lee Ryder has referred to him as "the Geordie godfather" - completely wrong choice of words. I noticed that too....was Sir Bobby head of the mafia or something? I still can't believe that Lee Ryder and Neil Cameron are journalists, their grasp of the English language is absolutely appalling...I can see that as someone who speaks it as a second language. RIP, he was someone who made me fall in love with NUFC. Like others have said, we really are a far cry from his gentlemanly and competitive conduct these days.
