Bobby Robson

Sir Robert "Bobby" Robson (18 February 1933 - 31 July 2009) was a footballer and football manager, and managed Ipswich Town and the England national football team.

During his playing career as a forward, he played at Fulham for six years before clocking up 239 appearances for West Bromwich Albion before returning to Fulham. After a five year spell at Craven Cottage, the forward was signed by Vancouver Royals where he became a coach with the club eventually folding, in 1968.

Robson managed Fulham before he was at Town. After leaving the England role, he went on to manage several European sides including PSV Eindhoven (in two spells), Sporting Lisbon, Porto, Barcelona and Newcastle United.
