I think we dodged a bullet there. Would have been interesting to see how Robson's coaching career would have ensued if Town hadn't given him the chance as he was by no means even second choice - I think Billy Bingham turned us down as well - and Robson wasn't greeted with huge enthusiasm.

Well, if Bobby Robson had gone to Leicester & been given time, I reckon he'd have done as well as he did at Town.

Possibly, although he might have achieved nothing, funny old game isn't it.

Take Sir Alex, definitely one game from the sack back in the 90's.

Also, SBR wouldn't have had MrJohn at Leicester - and no drunken donkey races at Glemham Hall
