SIR BOBBY TRIBUTE FREE

Posted on: Fri 14 Aug 2009
The Club are giving away a free magazine to celebrate the life of Sir Bobby Robson at Saturday's game against Leicester.

There will also be a minute's applause before kick-off at Portman Road, with the Book of Remembrance to Sir Bobby available for supporters to sign in the area behind his statue from 1pm until 3pm.

The 52 page magazine, which will be handed out to fans outside the stadium, features tributes and tales from John Wark, Kevin Beattie, Mick Mills, George Burley, Charlie Woods and many more and includes a personal tribute from Town owner Marcus Evans.

"Ipswich Town enjoyed its finest years under Sir Bobby's leadership," says Marcus.

"I have had the pleasure of meeting some of the players that took this Club to success at home and abroad in Bobby's years and it's clear what he meant to them. The flowers engulfing his statue; the tributes in the Book of Remembrance at Portman Road; the calls for one of the stands to be renamed in his honour further evidence of the love and respect the supporters of Ipswich Town have for Sir Bobby and will continue to have.

"The magazine has been provided for Ipswich Town fans in honour of Sir Bobby with the compliments of the Football Club."

Supporters are requested to only take one copy of the magazine and also to get to the ground early to avoid queues.
