R.I.P. Jack Charlton
Tremendously sad news to hear of Jack's passing this morning.
He was one of the games greats, and a gentleman.
Not only a great player and part of England's greatest triumph, he was a great manager, a real people person.
He completely turned round my clubs fortunes, ( Middlesbrough ), in the early seventies, and produced a team that very nearly won the domestic games top honour, the First Division as it was at the time.
He was a great success in managing national sides too, his Eire team achieved so much.
Thanks Jackie, for all you did. I'm sure " wor kid Bobby", would accept all of world, and domestic footballs, and all who met Jack's sincere and heartfelt condolences.
God bless you Jackie. R.I.P.
