Hafnia Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 A gent who set the blueprint of how managers should conduct themselves. Never seen to get involved in mind games or bickering. When looking at his clubs and achievements remains one of the best english managers. Showed courage and dignity to the end. RIP Sir Bobby.

MikeO Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Very few football people trascend club allegiances and have pretty much universal respect and admiration but he did. Very sad. (Only got cross with him once, when he failed to pick the full Everton contingent from the start in the '86 World Cup finals, sticking with Robson and Wilkins instead. Injury and suspension forced his hand in the end though and proved me and every other Evertonian right!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iggy Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 A real shame that his time has come, there are many in the world of football who could do with taking a leaf or three from his book. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue 250 Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Seemed a very nice person with a great football knowledge.Read in his book he agreed verbaly to becoming Everton manager way back, just didn't happen.Went on to say it was one of his biggest regrets in football. Fought this last battle with bravery and humour. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
