Robson Returns - Ipswich Town News
Town president Sir Bobby Robson has resumed his role alongside Republic of Ireland manager Steve Staunton after being given the all-clear by his medical team. Robson underwent surgery to remove a brain tumour at a Newcastle hospital on August 23rd.
Robson said: "I have been given the all-clear by the doctors and I am looking forward to getting back to doing the job I was employed to do. Although I have been in regular contact with Stephen [Staunton] and [FAI CEO] John [Delaney] by telephone, I missed being able to link up with the squad and attend the games.
"The FAI, and in particular John Delaney and Stephen Staunton, have been wonderfully supportive in recent weeks and I desperately want to repay them in the coming months by helping Stephen and the squad build on the excellent performance against the Czech Republic and show that the result against Cyprus was a one-off.”
