Very, very sad day. I don't often get sad at people in the game passing away, but this bloke was a true legend, and I mean that in every sense of the word.

There aren't too many genuine football legends in my eyes, he was up there with Moore, Matthews and Charlton (R). I do feel sad at this news, football will miss him.

Good that he was still around to see the fundraising match last weekend. Very apt timing really.

Legend, a real gent and his loss will be felt around the world, through those people he came in touch with over the years in through football.

As has been said many people pass away with football connections but this one has got to me.

The game will sadly miss him.

R.I.P. Sir Bobby

Although not unexpected, still very sad.

The game is full of arseholes these days (agents, maverick players in it for the cash, two-bit managers, crooked chairmen, etc, etc), but a 'proper football' man has passed on today and there aren't many left like him, sadly.

Sad for Bobby and his family, but also for the game in general.

A legend of the game and a true gentleman who was treated disgracefully by the Sun and others during his time as England manger and dumped far to quickly by Newcastle UTD.

There are few people respected by everyone in the game and he will be sadly missed

It's amazing how strong a human can be. I've no doubt that if there hadnt been the charity match he may well have passed a few weeks ago. Giving someone with a terminal illness something to aim for can't half buy some time. Look at Jane Tomlinson.

RIP Sir Bob

Very sad news, english football has lost one of it's greatest ambassadors sadly as said above there was too few people like him still involved with the game these days.

A true legend and the game won't be the same without him.

Two things that make me smile is Bobby constantly called Kieron Dyer Kevin and when Shola Ameobi was asked what his nickname was from Bobby he said Carl Cort.

R.I.P Bobby you'll never be forgotten

A true legend who walked among the giants of the game but humble enough to be the guy next door to any of us.
R.I.P. Sir Bobby

A very sad day, not just for the North East, but for the beautiful game as a whole.

He dedicated his life to the game and should be honoured.
I wouldn't be surprised if there's a plinth waiting outside St. James' already.

RIP indeed.

Legend is a word much over used nowadays , but Bobby truely deserved it. The man was loved throughout the footballing world and respected for his knowledge and passion.He is finally free from the pain of cancer , R.I.P.
