RIP Sir Bobby Robson

RIP Sir Bobby

Notice the eulogies coming from the media that absolutely slaughtered him non-stop for his eight years as England manager.

[Reverend Gooner]

My favourite manager ever after Wenger, a true hero who deserved to be a "sir".

I was gutted to discover the news today, although 5 times battling cancer shows the fight and character of the man.

RIP Bobby Robson, football will never forget you.

Must of been seeing Newkie in that puke kit then losing to Leyton Orient that finished him off..

Any need to be a dick?

Light humour guys in a time of us ALL feeling the loss of the 2nd greatest England football manager and the greatest English manager of all time..

before anything starts i dont think today is the day for jokes at Newcastle's expense or about BR.

Yep agree totally, and I'll suspend accounts on here if people do.

I know you didnt mean anything buy it mate i know your not like that, but if say Bergkamp had just died and i said it was because of watching how crap arsenal was last season im sure not many would find it funny.

Sorry if i caused any offence but its the English humour. There was a hell of load of jokes about Jacko on here shortly after his death and eveyone ignored those peeps who found it offensive.

There's a bit of a difference. Michael Jackson may have been a peado and was a bit of a freak. Noone has a bad word to say about robson. He was a gentleman.

Yeah, Robson was a well respected person, I can't think of any reason why he would be hated.

Jacko on the other hand....

My comment wasn't really a dig at robson more at newcastle. I didn't mention any bad word about Sir Bobby. theres peeps out there and probably on here who feel the same way as you and i feel about Sir BR about Jacko so those comments would hurt them. Any way if you want to carry on PM me. I'm not wanting to spoil this dedication honour on our petty comments.

Watch this and you might actually realise what people like robson and keegan actually mean to people from newcastle. Not many clubs have experienced having managers like them.

Sky News read out a message earlier saying

"Sir Bobby didnt lose his battle with cancer he beat it 4-1"


RIP Sir Bobby, A true legend of our game and thanks for the memories and legacy.

5 years today

RIP Bobby

IIRC he came pretty close to managing us in the 90s.

Can't remember whether it was before or after Rioch.
