BOBBY TAMBLING

Featured Replies

Oh dear, he's had a turn for the worse, has he?   All me best wishes too go out to Bobby.  I wonder if he is as eager as us to see Frank equal/beat his record?

I've just goggled it to see if it;'s what he had last time.  And no, it's not, which is good news (of a sort).  He has severe leg ulcerations and has been in hospital for four months.

ChelseaTV interviewed Frank after getting his 200th goal against the Spammers last week where Frank admitted he hadn't spoken to Bobby for a while. Immediately after the interview he put that right and there was a further clip showing him speaking to Bobby on the phone.

I hope he makes a speedy recovery, a true gent from all accounts I've read, and very well regarded by Chelsea supporters.

 

I believe he was a club representative on our last pre-season trip to the States, and that he travelled over with his wife?

 

I know it gets said a lot, but you've got to be pleased with the way the club looks after it's own nowadays, particularly after some of the unsavoury stuff that happened during the Bates era.

At this point i must retell my little story of how nice Bobby is.....Circa 68, i was a tiny lad on holiday on Hayling Island...I went to a sports shop not knowing anything about the place....I bought a large picture of BT...The lady who served me informed me this very man was in the back room and asked if i would like the pic of him signed....He came out and signed it for a shy dumbstruck 13 year old.......

He would have picked me up by the collar, thrown me out of his shop and shouted..." Beaway with you , and n er come near these parts again"

i have never met him but i have been told and read up that he was quite a striker with bridges. and at the age of 22 he captained the side to promotion. reading on here certainly gives me more insight on the man himself. speedy recovery mr tambling.
