In my 27 years working in England, there is not a person I would put an inch above Bobby Robson. He was a great friend, a wonderful individual, a tremendous football man and somebody with passion and knowledge of the game that was unsurpassed.
“The strength and courage he showed over the many years when battling against cancer was indescribable.
Always a smile, always a friendly word, with never a mention of his own problems.
The world, not just the football world, misses him, as I do. Let’s hope it won’t be long before another like him turns up because we could never get enough of them. I hope that people around the world will get behind this Sir Bobby’s Breakthrough online auction and help them raise hundreds of thousands of pounds in the fight against cancer.”
