Danh1 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 This is why I can never dislike Mourinho, a true apprentice turned master. He has so much respect for Bobby too,in Mourinho's book he says one of the most important things he learnt from Bobby was "just because you win doesn't mean your the best,and just because you lose doesn't make you the worst" I think he may have told a certain John Carver that losing makes you the best.

Stottie Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Sorry if this is common knowledge or Giggs, but the video of SBR and Mourinho got me thinking about how the latter got where he has and his wiki came up with Only weeks after being given the job at Benfica, Mourinho's mentor, Sir Bobby Robson, offered him the assistant manager's role at Newcastle United. Such was Robson's desperation for Mourinho to join him he offered to step down after two years in charge and hand over the reins to Mourinho. Mourinho turned the offer down and said he knew Robson would never step down at the club he loved. The source is Mourinho's biography. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 25 years following football I've never felt so emotionally attached to anyone in the game like Bobby. The game really misses him, so do we. Just a great, great man.

Scotty66 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Actually been thinking about using one of his quotes from that sport personality speech in my wedding speech.

Yeah read that book and sent shivers down my spine thinking about a Robson and Mourinho management team Mourinho also says one of the most important things Bobby taught him was that "just because you win doesn't mean your the best,and just because you lose doesn't mean your the worst."

Heron Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Found out he passed on sat in the test centre before my driving test. Didn't think of anything but him during my test and passed first time. I thank Felling Mag for that, bit would rather he was alive (Sir Bobby) and I failed. God personified. A good player, a great manager, a superhero and a gentleman. <3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 The best manager we've probably ever had. KK stands out more, and I adore KK, but SBR was the better manager. If only he had of replaced KK... I used to enjoy his pre and post match interviews as much as the actual game, he was a joy to listen to, honest, dignified, witty and hugely passionate. We become everyone's second fave team under him, well for a good number anyway, and that was down to him and not how we played or the players we had. Love him to bits and always will.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I've cried 3 times supporting NUFC, when Cole was sold, when Sir Bobby passed and when Speed passed. Cole being sold was tears of a then child, Sir Bobby was tears or mourning, as if he was a close family member. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were waaay older than that. 11 or 12 I think, I was a stroppy emotional kind of kid when growing up. It was more of an angry cry to be honest. A how dare we sell Cole, man. AHRRRRRRGHHH. Who am I kidding, I blubbed like Gazza against Germany! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
