Summary

Revered in Newcastle and the North-East, Sir Bobby Robson is a man whose fame knows no boundaries and who enjoys phenomenal popularity. His hugely successful playing days with Fulham and West Brom in the 1950s and 1960s, his 20 England caps and his brilliant management career over the past 38 years mean that he has inspired generations of fans.

He has been witness to some of the most historic sporting moments throughout his incredible career, and in his book remembers epic incidents from the 'Hand of God' to the tears of Gazza. He also relives leading England through two World Cups, and the pain of coming within a penalty kick of the 1990 World Cup final.

Sir Bobby's story is a rich and diverse one and this autobiography will celebrate his remarkable life.

Wonderful

It was so nice to hear Sir Bob read this book about his career in the game. It’s not very long, but it is very enjoyable and easy to listen to and follow. I would definitely recommend it

A true honest gentleman

One of the most honest accounts of a true gentleman. No mud slinging, no calling. Just honesty from start to finish. The only down side to this book, is the fact it had to end.

Legend

As you'd expend. Great story from a great man. I did want more though. Quite short. I'm sure there was more to share.
