So sad, I can always see him 'dancing' around the pitch at the end, no front teeth in. Another bit of my history gone :-(
RIP NOBBY, Thanks for the memory

A no nonsense honest footballer who wore his heart on his sleeve, and a legend of the English game., evidenced by a World Cup Winners medal.

RIP Nobby

So sad. Met him years ago at a work�s do, I was one of two women there. He apologised to us both at the end of his speech for the bad language he has used. Such a lovely man, came across as really genuine and told some very funny stories. RIP Nobby

Yeah, another of the good guys has left us. Nobby was in the team when I first started watching United in the mid-60's, and he was one of those players you were glad he was playing for you rather than against.

A real down to earth bloke who was the exact opposite of how he seemed on the pitch!
God bless.
