 A Tribute To Bobby Moore.
Bobby was not that tall, and tended to be on the 'chubby' side, but played at centre-half well, without showing any of the talent that was to come later.
Bobby still lacked the speed of many footballers, and would never be considered 'speedy' but his increasing knowledge of the game enabled him to 'read' the play, positioning himself perfectly as and when required and being fully aware of who was around him, team-mates and opponents alike.
Bobby hid the fact that he was fighting his greatest battle from all but his closest family and continued to play golf, swim, and live, outwardly, as normal a life as he could while undergoing treatment, only publicly announcing his illness in early February 1993.
