Sir Bobby Latest - Ipswich Town News

Sir Bobby Robson's agent has released a statement regarding the former Town manager's progress after last week's surgery to remove a brain tumour. The 73-year-old is in good spirits, although he is suffering from a temporary loss of movement on his left side.

The statements says: "Sir Bobby Robson continues to make good progress after major surgery which involved complete re-section of a tumour from the motor cortex part of his brain.

"Thankfully, he does not require any follow-up chemotherapy or radiation treatment.

"Sir Bobby is in good spirits and talking about his recovery. He is out of bed, enjoying reading the papers, watching television and listening to the radio to keep up to date with the latest football news.

"However, he has a slight swelling on his brain which is causing a temporary loss of movement in part of his left leg and left arm. This is being treated with physiotherapy. He will therefore remain in hospital for the time being."
