Sir Bobby Robson RIP

Very sad news indeed

What awful news. ☹️

RIP, as a Mackem, on behalf of the NE I propose a day of mourning. He truly was a great man.

Oh no! ☹️

Just seen this. Very sad. So pleased he got to attend his charity football match on Sunday, and that England won! ?

RIP Sir Bobby, a true legend.

Just heard about this from a friend who's a Sunderland fan, who said "it blows". Really sad news. He was one of the few people who united the Geordies and the Mackems.

R.I.P. Sir Bobby.

Oh, that is so sad. RIP Bobby.

Agree with feathers about his match.

Devastating news.

Bizarrly enough, this morning I hunted out a photo and programme my husband had signed by Sir Bobby with a congratulations message for us after our son was born. I brought them into work to sort out getting them framed.

RIP Sir Bobby. A true gentleman.

What a man.The length of this standing ovation only goes to highlight it. RIP Sir Bobby.

RIP Bobby - a true footballing legend

That video is just lovely. I've welled up.?

Sir Bobby is a true true legend, a wonderful man and he was the best England manager we ever had ?

It's a sad day for the football world. RIP Sir Bobby ?

This is so sad ?

Aah! am not a big football fan but he always seemed like a nice bloke and a gentleman on tv

RIP Bobby ?

Another who is not a football fan but am sad to hear it. RIP Sir Bobby!

It's such a shame. I'm from the north east and I know a few people who went to the match on Sunday and said it was very emotional. I truly belive this match is what kept him going.

RIP Bobby

Really sad. He put up a great fight.. I just hope that everybody that goes to St James' to pay their respects also remembers to give some money to his charity. He has done truly good things with his life RIP
