Sir Bobby Robson

[Craig Brown]

Amen to that…I had the pleasure of meeting him when he was manager of Ipswich Town…what you saw was what you got (pity a few more in that profession couldn’t take a leaf out of his book)

[Glenn Sharp]

I was at his charity game last Sunday……..I cried like a baby when he was wheeled out to meet the players.

Great footballer, great manager, great man

The North East and the footballing world in general have lost one of the best

God bless ya Bobby

[Glenn Sharp]

I’ve just been up to the ground this morning to sign the book of condolence and to leave a scarf

here are a few pics for those who might like to see…….

[Lynn Normington]

what an amazing tribute, I don’t "do" football but he was a remarkable man
rest in peace.

Lynn

[Glenn Sharp]

I think there will plenty more to come Lynn

Those pics were taken at 10 this morning and when I left the town at half 3 they were queuing right round the ground to get in

They are keeping the ground open all week this week so I think it will be a pretty amazing sight

[Kevin Parr]

I’m not a footy fan but i appreciate how dedicated this man was to the game
and how passionate he was in helping the cancer charities.God Bless
