Bobby Robson is a legend in British football, and his autobiography, Farewell but not Goodbye, is a lively and dramatic picture of a life lived in and for the Beautiful Game.

While Robson has been granted almost godlike status in Newcastle and the North East, his career has touched on every aspect of the national sport.
