Ideas to remember Sir Bobby at first home match?

[Guest The Libertine]

passing the big signed shirt around would be good but it'd probably get damaged.

Instead of black armbands for the players, they could instead pay a fitting tribute by exhibiting the same level of passion he did for once in their lives.  You can be damn sure he would have wanted that more than armbands or moments of silence.

Even better get Mark Knopfler on the pitch and do it , it will be hard to fight the tears back.

Here's an idea...how about selling out the ground?

 

Exactly, lets get 52,000 into SJP and really show everyone that all thats good about NUFC still shines through above everything thats gone on.

I bought 3 tickets on Saturday night on line and was gutted at how many were left 1st home game since the great man left us we can't have any empty seats in that ground!! They are not cheap I paid £75 for two adults and a child but the point is we need to fill the ground and do something special for bobby.......

Should sing "Theres only one Bobby Robson" for one minute, followed by a minutes applause.

 

I was thinking this the other day. I thought that if all the Newcastle fans started chanting that during a minutes silence, I'm pretty certain the WBA fans would join in.

This doesn't actually concern WBA as that's our first game, away and not home

I don't feel SBR would have wanted anything more than a completely sold-out SJP, getting 100% behind the team and generating an electric atmosphere.

 

Such was his extraordinary selflessness.

I've been in contact recently with the lady who deals with the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation at the Freeman Hospital as I'm raising money for the foundation running the Great North Run this year. I'll email her later and put forward the suggestion of the shirt sponsorship.

 

Good stuff Sned.

 

I've had a reply back thanking me for the suggestion. They are going to keep all of the ideas that have been put forward and show them to the Robson family when the time is right so that they can make a decision of what they would like to happen.
