The football world has lost a dear friend and gentleman in Sir Bobby Robson.
I have wonderful memories of his best achievement on the international stage where he led England to the 1990 World Cup semi-final.
Not around to see the heroics of 66, I was kept on the edge of my seat as his team made hard work of getting out of a group.
Aged 18, my heart was pulled this way by a team in which Gary Lineker made his name.
