	Sir Bobby Robson
		Sir Bobby Robson is regarded as the grandfather of English managers - albeit a sprightly one.
		Bobby made his debut as a manager in the dug-out of his old club Fulham in January 1968, but did not last long there, leaving the London club in November.
		Robson's achievements with the previously unheralded side merited him the call of his country, and in 1982 he succeeded the late Ron Greenwood as coach of the English national football team after the World Cup in Spain.

		Author: Sir Bobby Robson / Genre: Sports Books Bobby Robson is a legend in British football, and his autobiography, Farewell but not Goodbye, is a lively and dramatic picture of a life lived in and for the Beautiful Game.
		Robson’s book isn’t really full of incredibly funny stories as his coaching career didn’t plumb the depths of the lower divisions or take in the champagne lifestyles of the seventies.
		Robson also tells it like it is when talking about the hand of god incident in 86, exclaiming that Maradona couldn’t be considered a great as he blatantly cheated.

	Newcastle United sack Sir Bobby - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		Robson, now 71, took over the reigns at Newcastle in a time of crisis after the sacking of Ruud Gullit in February, 1999, and turned them round using a blend of youth and experience and got them as high as third place in the Premiership season of 2002/3.
