Publisher's Synopsis
Brought up in the North East, Sir Bobby Robson began his working life at fifteen in the mines of Langley Park, before playing for Fulham and West Brom and winning many England caps. As English football's greatest living manager, he has witnessed many historic sporting moments and he recalls such epic incidents as the 'Hand of God' and the tears of Gazza, the agony of coming within a penalty kick of the 1990 World Cup Final, and his controversial sacking as Newcastle manager in 2004. His story reflects the qualities he has always embodied: passion, humour, hard work and fair play.
