Guest toonlass Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Bobby was, and will always be, my favourite person in football. His lifetime achievement award on the Sports Personality of the Year has the ability to make me smile, laugh and cry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Fair play to Jenas, nice fella. Wonder what another couple of years under Bobby's wing could have done for his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 RIP Sir Bobby. He's the only person ever who I wanted us to win something for him, more than I wanted us to win something for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v476/grantJUK/bobbyrobsonon3.jpg Love this picture. The respect. The Camp Nou... when's that photo from? 2002? Yeah, the game that was called off due to the rain and then played the next day, Shola scored. We were at the airport, about to go home, I was with my Dad and he split up with his then partner over the game. They worked together, she had to go home for a meeting, he had the authority to just sack off his plans for the next 2 days and stay out in Barcelona with me for the match.

Village Idiot Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I was at that game too, although for some reason I had totally forgotten about the rain. Shola looked quite the player that night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Shola is quite the player. He could teach that Xavi and the messy lad a thing or two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I was at that game too, although for some reason I had totally forgotten about the rain. Shola looked quite the player that night. I was only 16 at the time yet night of the rain is possibly still the most drunk I've ever been in life, to this day I do not know how I got back to my hotel. There was Geordies everywhere that day, must have been 10,000 in Barcelona, I remember the police coming into Plaça Reial and closing all the bars and restaurants.

Village Idiot Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Yeah, I have a great memory of that, actually had some great banter with your lot and got smashed with some guy who said that his two heroes in life were Shay Given and Josif Stalin. Priceless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I was there for the England vs Germany friendly a few days before he died. I think before hand we all knew it was just a matter of time, but when he came out onto the pitch I just said to my mam, "Thats him saying goodbye, such a shame to see such a strong person fall victim to a horrible illness like that". I was enjoying myself during the game, after he came onto the pitch though I just felt really sad and pretty depressed because I knew what was around the corner. When the news of his death broke a few days later I wasn't surprised as from after that game I had been expecting it to happen at anytime. Anyway their wil never be another one like him, I hope Mourinho (highly unlikely)eventually come and manages us to finish the job that Bobby started.
