RIP. Proper giant of the game. Never had the pleasure but by all accounts quite a nice chap too. Great life lives and leaves some unforgettable memories.

Rest in peace

RIP Sir Bobby.

 

[Calpol]

A superstar before there were such things in sport and apparently one of the most grounded men you could meet. RIP Sir Bobby

True legend of the game that you never hear a bad word spoke of. RIP.

Decent piece here with some great photos.

Sons of Ashington were pillars of England’s 1966 success but never bonded as children and family discord later divided them

Very sad. A true great of the game.

 

[Kelt]

So he died from a fall, after getting confused due to his dementia.

What a **** awful disease that is.

Having seen my grandad go through the deterioration pathway of that disease, Bobby is in a much better place now, the suffering is not worth the stoppage time as it's so painful for all hoping for the next "good day" which get rarer and rarer. RIP.
