A sad day for football.

Sir Bobby was by all accounts an absolute gem of a person.

Rest in peace Bobby.

^ Yes, a genuine gem!
Really loved him. everyone did.
He looked like he was struggling with his health while in his last tenure at Newcastle, but kept an upright chin. Lovely bloke. RIP Dear Bobby , Great man!

My fondest memory of Bobby is watching him describing a free kick in a post-match press conference by standing up & going through the motions of taking the free kick himself, with all the energy & enthusiasm of an England under-21!

A great bloke, a genuine character & will be missed.

Bye Bobby.
