Sir Bobby Robson was a real fighter and a real inspiration to sports and to humanity. The movie was great. Real in depth interviews with some of the world's current and past time elites in football. By the end of the movie I was barely able to hold in my emotions and had to fight back the tears.
What a man and what a legacy! A must watch for any football fan and an amazing documentary that anyone can watch and enjoy. RIP Sir Bobby Robson. You will be missed.

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 poignant and refreshingly honest. The definitive insight into the thinking of a football manager featuring all the highs and lows. Great interviews with players past and current managers lend further weight to the legendary status Bobby Robson so richly deserved.
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".

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.
