Bobby Robson Since his death on Friday, tributes have continued to be paid to Sir Bobby Robson, the former manager of the English national association football team. Silences were held at football games throughout the country over the weekend, with fans creating makeshift shrines at Newcastle United and Ipswich Town  the two clubs he was most strongly associated with. Despite failing to win any major trophies with the national team  Bobby Robson was one of the most successful and best loved England managers. His team infamously losing a penalty shoot out to West Germany for a place in the finals of the 1990 World Cup. Following the decision by the Football Association to not renew his contract after the 1990 World Cup, Robson won honours in club football with PSV Eindhoven, FC Porto  and FC Barcelona. His success as a manager has been put down to a great tactical brain and the ability to get the best out of his players, not least through his respect and generosity of spirit towards them. Robson will be remembered for his humour, integrity and for his love of a game that he relished from childhood visits to his beloved Newcastle, a team he was later to manage. He died at the age of 76 after a long battle with cancer  and leaves behind his wife of 54 years Elsie and their sons Andrew, Paul  and Mark.
