Bobby Robson: More Than a Manager

What an exceptional gentleman Sir Bobby Robson was. A great homage to the man who who has inspired the two most successful managers of the last decade. The world needs more men like this in it. A must watch if you're a football fan.

This documentary highlights more than anything, how much of a true gent Sir Bobby was and how sad it is that in todays game these characters are now non-existent.

I watched this documentary with very little knowledge of this great man. I was born in 1990 and by the time I was fully following football, Bobby's greatest days were behind him. I knew him as an Engkand manager and as a Newcastle manager, and unfortunately not much else. This documentary takes you through his career, with dialogue from Bobby himself, and other characters of the game such as Pep, Mourinho, Sir Alex Ferguson and Paul Gasgoine.

It is shot beautifully and is put together very well. It is easy to follow and gives a very good insight into his career. It is light-hearted and funny in places and then completely heart-breaking in others. The emotion (from Paul Gasgoine in particular) is very moving and the respect shown for Sir Bobby is beautiful to see.

Sir Bobby loved the game. A real old fashioned, football man. I would recommend this to any football fan. If you aren't holding back the tears by the end then I would be very surprised.

Excellent: 9/10

Beautifully architected film which allows the man's brilliance to be juxtaposed with his humour and humility. I thought I knew about him but I learned a lot from this true celebration of a gentleman genius. And it made my dad cry.

The depth of humanity of Sir Bobby Robson astounds me. His legacy still dominates the world's biggest sport today, through the likes of Pep Guardiola & Jose Mourinho. Sir Alex Ferguson credited Sir Bobby for helping him getting started in management. The two most talented players of their generation: Ronaldo & Paul Gascoigne said they owe him everything. The best goalscorers of their era: Alan Shearer and Gary Lineker likewise.

The World Cup Italia '90 scenes and the recent interviews with Gascoigne about his relationship with Sir Bobby were the most poignant. It's as if Sir Bobby saw himself in Gazza: both born entertainers, loved people, incredibly talented in their own ways. I think Sir Bobby knew after retiring, Gazza would not be able to cope without the game, just as he couldn't. Most people who are into football already knew most of the stories in this film, but not this one. I defy you to not to be moved.

He had an encyclopaedic knowledge of football and was sharp as a button, yet treated all those around him with respect and compassion. Such a rare combination of qualities make him inspirational.

Mourinho: "A person does not die until the last person who loves him dies".

I watched it out of curiosity as I am a fan born in 1991, so I didn't have a chance to live my supporter's life along with Sir Robson coaching neither Barca or Newcastle. Therefore, while watching I was like supporting that he would win every game or tittle that was shown in the move.

What I liked the most about him was his positive attitute towards his life and others. I really like him. I would have liked watching his teams play, I feel.

Rest in peace Sir Bobby Robson.
