Bryan Robson, Throat Cancer

x in the city

Right, before anyone spoofs shoite at me, I dont see any thread on this...

Robson was a legend of a player. He has not had the most successful time as a manager since his playing days finished but anyone who grew up in the 80s would remember him as a rock of a player.

He is the manager of Thailand now (where its possible he has made them an even worse team ) but he has had his medical treatment there, I am led to believe Bangkok is not short on first class treatment so I think and hope he gets a full recovery.

Robbo, scorer of a WC goal after 27 seconds against the French, reason enough to like him.

Legend of a player - get well soon.

Greatest United midfielder of my lifetime. If he meets this challenge like he did his time on the football pitch, cancer will be getting a major hiding from Robbo. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.

My thoughts are with Bryan and his family, hope he makes a full recovery.

Hopefully will recover if true. A real united legend in a time when the word is bandied around too lightly and probably my favourite united player.

I wish him a speedy recovery. True legend.

I remember watching him back in the day, when my brothers had Match of the Day on - on a Saturday night and I would be trying to stay up late by pretending to be interested in Man U, before there was such a thing as Sky Sports.

I wish him a speedy recovery and I genuinely hope the reports that he can recover from this are true.

Speedy recovery - legend of a player to be fair.
