Supporters pay their tributes to the late Sir Bobby Robson.
“He’s probably the best manager England has had. The thing I will always remember about him has got to be his dance down the touchline at Italia 90 after David Platt’s extra-time goal against Belgium.”
Phil Mansell, 54, from Gosport
“My first memory of Bobby Robson is from 1990, even though I was only six. The way he carried himself in the penalty shoot-out with West Germany – Robson didn’t cry at the end of the game, you just saw him consoling his players.”
Ibrar Khan, 25, from Walthamstow
Steve: “He looked like he enjoyed being a football manager and you could see the emotion on his face when he was with England. He just seemed like a great bloke.”
Steve Pope & Ryan Pope, 47, 15, Dorset
David: “Ipswich were a small club but he came in and changed the way we played football. In those days it wasn’t Man United and Chelsea challenging, it was Liverpool and Ipswich. I don’t think anyone has a bad word to say about Bobby Robson.”
Charlie & David Sexton, 9, 49, Norwich
Richard: “With all the rivalries that exist in the game, for a football manager to be loved by the fans of all the different clubs was the most amazing thing.”
Richard & Thomas Holland, 45, 9, Paignton
“I think we lost the best manager we’ve ever had. Life doesn’t seem so fair when someone like Bobby Robson has to fight a disease like that for years. I’m pleased he had a chance to say goodbye to the Newcastle fans the week before he died.”
Paul Abrey, 28, Grays
“I’ll always remember the night he was presented with the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year Lifetime Achievement Award – I thought it was a really moving occasion, one that brought a tear to my eye.”
Peter Fox, 55, from Barnsley
