The word legend is often used too loosely, but in all my years, there has never been a finer player, for United and England. A remarkable player, I was lucky to have seen him at the 1966 World Cup semi v Portugal, which also featured the great Eusebio! Our own Sir Alf of course managed him in those triumphant United years. Best, Charlton, Law, what a trio! We wont see his like again. Farewell Big Man.
He was towards the end of his United career when I started watching Town and I've no clear memory of seeing him play (although I do remember George Best). Obviously his reputation is of one of England's finest and most prolific strikers but he also struck me as a gentleman,calm and unflustered. RIP Sir Bobby. PS How are you doing now 'gaffer?
