Only 27 posts for the God of English football.

Rest in peace Sir Robert Charlton. The greatest player in the World.

England hasn't produced a better player since him. And maybe not before him.

This is on the same level as the Queens death, in football terms.

He was a legend for England, and he survived a very traumatic event that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

RIP to Sir Bobby.

Yeah , I can’t imagine what it must feel like to lose your best 8 friends in such circumstances.. he apparently came round in the wreckage completely surrounded by them ..

He was supposedly sat at the rear of the plane alongside the team doctor as he’d been treated for his fear of flying..when they set off he was already a trembling bundle of nerves.

He had suffered bouts of depression, anxiety and nightmares since the disaster

Bobby Charlton for Man United was like what Alfredo Di Stefano was for Real Madrid


or Eusebio for Benfica



should be always in the hearts of the mancunians
