Sir Bobby Robson has died

[DeathAdder]

Very sad. An absolute legend.

[ShadowDancer]

I'm still upset, I feel like I have lost something, I was emotionally attached to Robson for many years and always listened avidly to anything he ever had to say.

[VR46]

He was well liked by everyone and no one had a bad word to say about him.

So rare you can say that about anyone in football nowadays which goes to prove what a Gent he was and who knows, without Robson being the man he was, the "Special One" (JM) might have not been so special after all.

[Kongster]

Agreed, David.

BBC1 are showing a tribute to the legend that is Sir Bobby Robson tonight at 10:40. Essential viewing for every football fan.

[Pavey]

On now, very moving. Showed a clip from February, didn't look too good. Bless his soul.

[Blade Runner]

Very sad. R.I.P. Sir Bobby Robson

he nearly came to Celtic a few years ago, but Newcastle stole him from under our noses
