Sir Bobby Robson was revered in the football world not only for his achievements with Ipswich, PSV Eindohoven, Sporting Lisbon, FC Porto, Barcelona and England, but also because he was a true gentleman whose character stood out far bigger than any player under his charge.
The man helped blossom the talents of many superstars - the Brazil strikers Romario and Ronaldo, Alan Shearer, Bryan Robson and Paul Gascoigne to name a few - and it's a testament to the man that on Sunday, a wheelchair-bound Robson was at St James' Park for a charity match in his honour which attracted a crowd of more than 30,000 fans.
Please share your thoughts and memories of one of the greatest managers to have ever graced the game.
