Not a bad age to go at, to have had such an incredible life and lived a long and happy retirement.

RIP to a great, he'll long live in the history of both England and Man United

Awww shit, what a shit day.

[–] WarrenAlaCarte@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In some way I equated old trafford to him. Great ambassador.

[–] an0mn0mn0m@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It was always nice to see him in the crowd. The man loved the club and the club & fans loved him. RIP Sir Bobby.

I think probably England's greatest ever player. RIP

Tragic, but what an iconic life he lived. He saw it all.

[–] WalksinClouds@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Magnificent player and an even better man. Manchester United and England legend. Such dignity. He will be sorely missed.

[–] ShadowXYZ04@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One of the greatest. Rest in peace❤️

A career and life that is film worthy. What a man he was.

[–] Luseba@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Goodbye Legend!!!!

[–] reyzen@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Footballing legend. May he rest easy.

[–] RRR92@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What a man. To come back from what he did and win the CL was an unbelievable story.

[–] Mean_Stretcher@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

RIP to a legend

[–] DildoFappings@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I just woke up. What a shit news to wake up to. He's the first football player to win the Ballon d'or, the world cup and the European Cup. Absolute legend. I see him at almost every game on the telly. To become one of the pivotal players in the club during its era of success after everything he's been through, it takes a special kind of willpower and courage it's hard to see in a human being. Lost almost all of his friends in the air disaster, and then somehow picked himself up to be dubbed one of the best players of all time and even led the club to a European Cup. RIP. Absolutely devastated to hear this news.

[–] Roasteddude@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rip. I'm too young to have watched him play but I respect his legend and legacy.

[–] Kaiser93@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

May he rests in peace.

[–] Count_77@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Legend. Rest in peace.

[–] justk4y@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The best English football player off all time, rest in peace 🫡🕊️

[–] I_miss_Chris_Hughton@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One of the absolute titans of the English and world game. I dont really think there's many left from england from his level of greatness. Him, moore and banks were an outrageous spine to have in a team

[–] ambiguousboner@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One of the greatest

[–] aredditusername69@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

He really took Kane breaking his Wembley record to heart eh?

[–] dkfisokdkeb@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Did he fuck he'd be glad to see his national team do well.

Absolutely broken. At least the babes are finally all together again now.

[–] FragMasterMat117@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rest easy Sir Bobby

[–] Hidden_Hidden2023@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Greatest.

A man who defined Manchester United.

Horrendous news.

Rest in Peace Sir Bobby. You'll never be forgotten.

Dementia. He was 86.

[–] magnoliasmum@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dunno if anyone here is as old as I am, but feels like another link to my late dad is gone. So many stories of Bobby and Jackie and Martin and Nobby. He was there the day they won it all.

[–] lefort22@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

RIP RIP RIP

[–] sussywanker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Holy shit!!!

[–] momspaghetty@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

RemindMe! 5 hours

[–] N3DSdude@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Sad to see him gone, he was an amazing player and person, helped to rebuild Man Utd after Munich, and played a key role in England's 1966 World Cup Win. May he rest in peace.

[–] Jakabov@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Charlton, Edwards, Law and Georgie Best.
