    Sad news indeed. Have to admire such an inspiring and dignified way that he is dealing with it.

    Definitely, I've a massive amount of respect for Sir Bobby. The way he behaves in public, and voices his opinions should be an inspiration to anyone involved in football.

    Shame, although that's life I suppose. A true gentleman of the game. Pity there aren't more like him around.

    Jaysus, everyone would have to wear name badges.

    Sad news. No one has a bad word for the guy, which says a lot in football.
    You didn't even need those cars, Vin. The violence was inside you the whole time.

    You can't help but like and admire the guy. I'd have loved him to have been manager rather than assistant of Ireland, the man is a legend and a gentleman, and hope he's up for another battle, he can pull through again. Best of luck Bobby.
