Bryan Robson <a href="Officer_of_the_Order_of_the_British_Empire" class="mw-redirect" title="Officer of the Order of the British Empire">OBE</a> (born 11 January 1957) is an English <a href="Association_football" title="Association football">football</a> manager and former player. He began his career with <a href="West_Bromwich_Albion_F.C." title="West Bromwich Albion F.C.">West Bromwich Albion</a> in 1972, where he amassed over 200 appearances and was club captain, before moving to <a href="Manchester_United_F.C." title="Manchester United F.C.">Manchester United</a> in 1981, where he became the longest-serving captain in the club's history. He won two <a href="Premier_League" title="Premier League">Premier Leagues</a>, three <a href="FA_Cup" title="FA Cup">FA Cups</a>, one <a href="EFL_Cup" title="EFL Cup">Football League Cup</a>, two <a href="FA_Community_Shield" title="FA Community Shield">FA Charity Shields</a> and a <a href="UEFA_Cup_Winners'_Cup" title="UEFA Cup Winners' Cup">European Cup Winners' Cup</a> during his time there. Nicknamed "Captain Marvel",<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> Robson was voted in August 2011 as the greatest ever Manchester United player in a poll of the club's former players as part of a book, 19, released to celebrate the club's record-breaking 19th league title.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a>

Robson represented <a href="England_national_football_team" title="England national football team">England</a> on 90 occasions between 1980 and 1991, making him at the time the fifth-most <a href="Cap_(sport)" title="Cap (sport)">capped</a> England player.<a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a> His goalscoring tally of 26 placed him eighth on the list at the time. He played for England at the <a href="1982_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1982 FIFA World Cup">1982</a>, <a href="1986_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1986 FIFA World Cup">1986</a> and <a href="1990_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1990 FIFA World Cup">1990</a> <a href="FIFA_World_Cup" title="FIFA World Cup">World Cups</a>, and at <a href="UEFA_Euro_1988" title="UEFA Euro 1988">Euro 1988</a>. Robson captained his country 65 times; only <a href="Bobby_Moore" title="Bobby Moore">Bobby Moore</a> and <a href="Billy_Wright_(footballer%2C_born_1924)" title="Billy Wright (footballer, born 1924)">Billy Wright</a> have captained England on more occasions.

Robson began his management career as a player-manager with <a href="Middlesbrough_F.C." title="Middlesbrough F.C.">Middlesbrough</a> in 1994, retiring from playing in 1997. In seven years as Middlesbrough manager, he guided them to three <a href="Wembley_Stadium_(1923)" title="Wembley Stadium (1923)">Wembley</a> finals, which were all lost, and earned them promotion to the Premier League on two occasions. Between 1994 and 1996, he also served as assistant coach to England manager <a href="Terry_Venables" title="Terry Venables">Terry Venables</a>, which included <a href="UEFA_Euro_1996" title="UEFA Euro 1996">Euro 96</a>.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> He later returned to West Bromwich Albion for two years as manager, helping them become the first top division team in 14 years to avoid relegation after being bottom of the league table on Christmas Day. Less successful have been his short-lived spells as manager of <a href="Bradford_City_A.F.C." title="Bradford City A.F.C.">Bradford City</a> and <a href="Sheffield_United_F.C." title="Sheffield United F.C.">Sheffield United</a>, the former lasting barely six months and ending in relegation from what is now the <a href="EFL_Championship" title="EFL Championship">EFL Championship</a>, and the latter lasting less than a year and seeing his expensively-assembled side fail to challenge for promotion to the Premier League. On 23 September 2009, Robson was appointed manager of the <a href="Thailand_national_football_team" title="Thailand national football team">Thailand national team</a>. He resigned on 8 June 2011. On 1 July 2011, Robson was appointed "Global Ambassador" at Manchester United.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2></div>

Robson was born in Northlands, <a href="Chester-le-Street" title="Chester-le-Street">Chester-le-Street</a>, <a href="County_Durham" title="County Durham">County Durham</a>, to Brian, a long distance lorry-driver, and Maureen Robson.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp4-7-9">[9]</a> He was the second of four children, after sister Susan and ahead of younger brothers Justin and <a href="Gary_Robson_(footballer)" title="Gary Robson (footballer)">Gary</a> (also footballers).<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp4-7-9">[9]</a> Robson was brought up in <a href="Witton_Gilbert" title="Witton Gilbert">Witton Gilbert</a> until he was six, when the family moved to nearby Chester-le-Street, the town where he was born.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp4-7-9">[9]</a> As a boy, he supported <a href="Newcastle_United_F.C." title="Newcastle United F.C.">Newcastle United</a>; his childhood hero was Newcastle forward <a href="Wyn_Davies" title="Wyn Davies">Wyn Davies</a>.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> A keen footballer from a young age, he joined the local <a href="Cub_Scout" title="Cub Scout">Cub Scout</a> group purely so that he could play for their football team.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp11-12-11">[11]</a> Robson attended Birtley South Secondary Modern School, and later, <a href="Lord_Lawson_of_Beamish_Academy" title="Lord Lawson of Beamish Academy">Lord Lawson of Beamish comprehensive school</a>, where he competed for the school in athletics and football.<a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a> He was captain of both his school football team and the <a href="Washington%2C_Tyne_and_Wear" title="Washington, Tyne and Wear">Washington</a> and District team.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp11-12-11">[11]</a> As a teenager, he had trials with <a href="Burnley_F.C." title="Burnley F.C.">Burnley</a>, <a href="Coventry_City_F.C." title="Coventry City F.C.">Coventry City</a>, <a href="Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C." title="Sheffield Wednesday F.C.">Sheffield Wednesday</a>, Newcastle United and <a href="West_Bromwich_Albion_F.C." title="West Bromwich Albion F.C.">West Bromwich Albion</a>.<a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a>

Robson was in the final academic year of pupils who still had the option of finishing education at the age of 15, and in the summer of 1972, he accepted Albion manager <a href="Don_Howe" title="Don Howe">Don Howe</a>'s offer of a two-year apprenticeship, worth a wage of £5 per week in the first year and £8 per week in the second year.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a>

Towards the end of the <a href="1973%E2%80%9374_in_English_football" title="1973–74 in English football">1973–74</a> season, his second as an apprentice, Robson made his reserve team debut, against <a href="Everton_F.C._Reserves_and_Academy" class="mw-redirect" title="Everton F.C. Reserves and Academy">Everton reserves</a> at <a href="Goodison_Park" title="Goodison Park">Goodison Park</a>.<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> He signed a professional contract in the summer of 1974, earning £28 per week plus a £250 signing on fee.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> During the <a href="1974%E2%80%9375_in_English_football" title="1974–75 in English football">1974–75 season</a>, he was a regular in Albion's reserve team, but was not selected by <a href="Don_Howe" title="Don Howe">Don Howe</a> for the first team.<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a> Following Howe's departure with three matches of the season remaining, Robson was called up to the senior team for the first time by caretaker manager <a href="Brian_Whitehouse" title="Brian Whitehouse">Brian Whitehouse</a>. He made his first team debut away at <a href="York_City_F.C." title="York City F.C.">York City</a> on 12 April 1975 at the age of 18, helping Albion to a 3–1 victory.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp26-27-18">[18]</a> In the following game, his home debut, he scored his first goal for the club, in a 2–0 win over <a href="Cardiff_City_F.C." title="Cardiff City F.C.">Cardiff City</a>, and also scored in the final match of the season away at <a href="Nottingham_Forest_F.C." title="Nottingham Forest F.C.">Nottingham Forest</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp26-27-18">[18]</a>

During the <a href="1975%E2%80%9376_in_English_football" title="1975–76 in English football">following season</a>, Robson played only sporadically. He faced stiff competition for midfield places, not least from player-manager <a href="Johnny_Giles" title="Johnny Giles">Johnny Giles</a>, and was utilised by Giles in various positions, including centre-half, left-back and midfield.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a> Albion finished third in Division Two to win promotion back to the top-flight.

Robson experienced top-flight football for the first time during the <a href="1976%E2%80%9377_in_English_football" title="1976–77 in English football">1976–77 season</a>, and began to appear more regularly in the side, although he was still alternating between the positions of left back and his preferred central midfield role. His rapid progress was halted however, when he received the first serious injury of his career. Playing at left back, he broke his left leg in a tackle with <a href="Tottenham_Hotspur_F.C." title="Tottenham Hotspur F.C.">Tottenham Hotspur</a> striker <a href="Chris_Jones_(footballer%2C_born_1956)" title="Chris Jones (footballer, born 1956)">Chris Jones</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp30-32-20">[20]</a> Two months later, Robson made his comeback in a reserve game at <a href="The_Hawthorns" title="The Hawthorns">The Hawthorns</a>, but the original break was refractured in a challenge with <a href="Stoke_City_F.C." title="Stoke City F.C.">Stoke City</a>'s <a href="Denis_Smith_(footballer%2C_born_1947)" title="Denis Smith (footballer, born 1947)">Denis Smith</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp30-32-20">[20]</a> Again he recovered, and returned to the first team in late December. He went on to enjoy a run in the side and scored his first professional <a href="Hat-trick" title="Hat-trick">hat-trick</a>, in a 4–0 win against <a href="Ipswich_Town_F.C." title="Ipswich Town F.C.">Ipswich Town</a> on 16 March 1977.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp30-32-20">[20]</a> One month later however, he broke his right ankle in a challenge with <a href="Manchester_City_F.C." title="Manchester City F.C.">Manchester City</a>'s <a href="Dennis_Tueart" title="Dennis Tueart">Dennis Tueart</a>,<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp30-32-20">[20]</a> causing him to pull out of the England under-23 squad following his call-up.

Giles left Albion at the end of the 1976–77 season. His successor, the club's chief scout and former player <a href="Ronnie_Allen" title="Ronnie Allen">Ronnie Allen</a>, picked Robson to replace Giles in central midfield. However, Allen himself left midway through the season and defender <a href="John_Wile" title="John Wile">John Wile</a> was put in temporary charge. Results worsened and Robson was dropped from the team.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp33-34-21">[21]</a> He returned to the side under new boss <a href="Ron_Atkinson" title="Ron Atkinson">Ron Atkinson</a>, whom Robson described as "a down-to-earth, fair-minded, regular bloke".<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp33-34-21">[21]</a> Atkinson did leave Robson out of an <a href="FA_Cup" title="FA Cup">FA Cup</a> semi-final against <a href="Ipswich_Town_F.C." title="Ipswich Town F.C.">Ipswich Town</a>, but recalled him for the latter stages of the league campaign as Albion qualified for the <a href="UEFA_Europa_League" title="UEFA Europa League">UEFA Cup</a>. In the <a href="1978%E2%80%9379_in_English_football" title="1978–79 in English football">1978–79 season</a>, Robson was a key player, starting 41 out of 42 league games and wearing the number 7 shirt on each occasion.<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> He played a major part in Albion finishing third in Division One, their highest league placing for more than 20 years, and reaching the UEFA Cup quarter-finals. The <a href="1979%E2%80%9380_in_English_football" title="1979–80 in English football">following season</a> was a disappointing one by comparison, with the club finishing only 10th in the league, but Robson's performances in midfield helped to earn him his first full England cap in February 1980. In the <a href="1980%E2%80%9381_in_English_football" title="1980–81 in English football">1980–81 season</a>, he scored ten goals in 40 league games to help Albion to a 4th-place finish in the First Division.

Atkinson left to take over at <a href="Manchester_United_F.C." title="Manchester United F.C.">Manchester United</a> in June 1981, and speculation mounted that Robson would either follow him to United or join <a href="Bob_Paisley" title="Bob Paisley">Bob Paisley</a>'s <a href="Liverpool_F.C." title="Liverpool F.C.">Liverpool</a>. Albion offered Robson a new contract worth £1,000 per week, but he turned it down and put in a transfer request.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp45-46-23">[23]</a> His teammate <a href="Remi_Moses" title="Remi Moses">Remi Moses</a> signed for United in September 1981 and Robson followed soon afterwards.

</div>

Robson moved to United for a <a href="Progression_of_British_football_transfer_fee_record" class="mw-redirect" title="Progression of British football transfer fee record">British record transfer fee</a> of £1.5 million on 1 October 1981 and signed the contract on the <a href="Old_Trafford_(football_ground)" class="mw-redirect" title="Old Trafford (football ground)">Old Trafford</a> pitch two days later before a game against <a href="Wolverhampton_Wanderers_F.C." title="Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.">Wolverhampton Wanderers</a>. The record fee set by Robson was not broken for six years, when Liverpool paid £1.9 million for Newcastle striker <a href="Peter_Beardsley" title="Peter Beardsley">Peter Beardsley</a> in the summer of 1987. Robson made his United debut on 7 October 1981 in a 1–0 defeat away at <a href="Tottenham_Hotspur_F.C." title="Tottenham Hotspur F.C.">Tottenham Hotspur</a> in the <a href="Football_League_Cup" class="mw-redirect" title="Football League Cup">League Cup</a>.<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a> His league debut for his new club came three days later, in a goalless draw against <a href="Manchester_City_F.C." title="Manchester City F.C.">Manchester City</a> at <a href="Maine_Road" title="Maine Road">Maine Road</a>. This was his first appearance in the Manchester United number 7 shirt, which he wore for most of his appearances with United.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_p55-25">[25]</a> Robson scored his first goal for United on 7 November 1981 in a 5–1 win over <a href="Sunderland_A.F.C." title="Sunderland A.F.C.">Sunderland</a> at <a href="Roker_Park" title="Roker Park">Roker Park</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_p55-25">[25]</a> He ended his first season at United with 32 games and five goals for a United side who finished third in the league.

Robson tore his ankle ligaments during the 1983 League Cup semi-final victory over <a href="Arsenal_F.C." title="Arsenal F.C.">Arsenal</a>, meaning that he missed the <a href="1983_Football_League_Cup_Final" class="mw-redirect" title="1983 Football League Cup Final">final</a>, which United lost to Liverpool.<a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a> He regained his fitness in time for the <a href="FA_Cup" title="FA Cup">FA Cup</a> semi-final, again against Arsenal, and scored in a 2–1 win.<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a> The <a href="1983_FA_Cup_final" title="1983 FA Cup final">final</a> against <a href="Brighton_%26_Hove_Albion_F.C." title="Brighton & Hove Albion F.C.">Brighton</a> ended in a 2–2 draw. Robson scored twice in the replay, but declined the chance to become the first player in 30 years to score an FA Cup final hat-trick, instead allowing regular penalty taker <a href="Arnold_Muhren" class="mw-redirect" title="Arnold Muhren">Arnold Muhren</a> to convert a spot-kick to seal a 4–0 victory and enable Robson to lift his first trophy as United captain. Although this was United's fifth FA Cup triumph, Robson was only the second English captain to lift the trophy for United, and their first since <a href="Charlie_Roberts" title="Charlie Roberts">Charlie Roberts</a> in <a href="1909_FA_Cup_final" title="1909 FA Cup final">the 1909 final</a>; as United had been captained by an <a href="Ireland" title="Ireland">Irishman</a> in their <a href="1948_FA_Cup_final" title="1948 FA Cup final">1948</a> and <a href="1963_FA_Cup_final" title="1963 FA Cup final">1963</a> triumphs and a <a href="Scotland" title="Scotland">Scotsman</a> in <a href="1977_FA_Cup_final" title="1977 FA Cup final">1977</a>.<a href="#cite_note-28">[28]</a>

The following season, Robson helped the club enjoy a memorable run in the <a href="UEFA_Cup_Winners'_Cup" title="UEFA Cup Winners' Cup">European Cup Winners' Cup</a> – the club's best European run for 15 years. Robson scored twice in the 3–0 quarter-final second leg victory over <a href="FC_Barcelona" title="FC Barcelona">Barcelona</a> at Old Trafford, overturning a 2–0 first leg deficit to progress 3–2 on aggregate.<a href="#cite_note-29">[29]</a> He missed both legs of the semi-final defeat by <a href="Juventus_FC" title="Juventus FC">Juventus</a> due to a hamstring injury, but while in <a href="Turin" title="Turin">Turin</a> for the second leg was given permission by United to speak to Juve regarding a proposed transfer. The move never took place as neither Juventus nor any other club were prepared to meet United's £3 million asking price. Robson's injury also meant that he missed several crucial late season games as United's title challenge slipped away and they finished fourth, with Liverpool becoming champions for the third successive season and 15th time overall.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp76-79-30">[30]</a> Robson instead extended his contract with United in 1984, signing a seven-year deal worth around £1 million which would keep him there until at least 1991.<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a> United emerged as title challengers again the following season, although the title was eventually won by <a href="Everton_F.C." title="Everton F.C.">Everton</a>. He captained the club to another <a href="1985_FA_Cup_final" title="1985 FA Cup final">FA Cup</a> triumph, this time over Everton, where a <a href="Norman_Whiteside" title="Norman Whiteside">Norman Whiteside</a> goal in extra time denied their opponents the chance of a unique treble, as they had already won the league title and the European Cup Winners' Cup.

Robson and United began the following season in fine form with ten successive victories which suggested the championship could be on its way back to Old Trafford for the first time since 1967. But their form slipped after Christmas and they finished the season trophyless in fourth place 12 points behind champions Liverpool, 10 points behind runners-up Everton and eight points behind third-placed <a href="West_Ham_United_F.C." title="West Ham United F.C.">West Ham United</a>. Injuries, notably a dislocated shoulder suffering in February 1986, restricted Robson to just 21 out of 42 league appearances for United in <a href="1985%E2%80%9386_in_English_football" title="1985–86 in English football">1985–86</a>, though he did manage seven goals.

United started the following season badly and <a href="Ron_Atkinson" title="Ron Atkinson">Ron Atkinson</a> was sacked as manager in November 1986 and replaced by <a href="Alex_Ferguson" title="Alex Ferguson">Alex Ferguson</a>. The new manager had almost completely overhauled the squad within three years, but Robson remained firmly part of his plans. United finished second in the league in 1988, nine points behind champions Liverpool, but a frustrating campaign in <a href="1988%E2%80%9389_in_English_football" title="1988–89 in English football">1988–89</a> saw them finish 11th. Robson remained largely injury free during these seasons.

In 1990, Robson and United finally got their hands on another major trophy after five years of trying. After an injury-hit campaign where United had struggled in the league, Robson scored United's first goal in the <a href="1990_FA_Cup_final" title="1990 FA Cup final">FA Cup final</a> against <a href="Crystal_Palace_F.C." title="Crystal Palace F.C.">Crystal Palace</a> in the first match which ended in a 3–3 draw. United won the replay 1–0 and Robson thus became the first United captain to lift the cup three times. Robson had faced his familiar fight against injury once again in that <a href="1989%E2%80%9390_in_English_football" title="1989–90 in English football">1989–90 season</a>, restricted to 20 appearances out of 38 in the league, as United finished 13th – their lowest finish since relegation in 1974.<a href="#cite_note-32">[32]</a> Robson's testimonial match took place on 20 November 1990 and saw United lose 3–1 to Celtic at Old Trafford.<a href="#cite_note-33">[33]</a> During the <a href="1990%E2%80%9391_in_English_football" title="1990–91 in English football">1990–91 season</a>, he was restricted to 17 league appearances due to an injury suffered at the <a href="1990_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1990 FIFA World Cup">1990 FIFA World Cup</a>, and didn't make a first team appearance until just before Christmas. During his absence, United had been captained by fellow midfielder <a href="Neil_Webb" title="Neil Webb">Neil Webb</a>, but Robson regained the captain's armband on his return.

Robson was fit for the <a href="1991_European_Cup_Winners'_Cup_final" title="1991 European Cup Winners' Cup final">European Cup Winners Cup final</a> in which United beat <a href="F.C._Barcelona" class="mw-redirect" title="F.C. Barcelona">Barcelona</a> 2–1 in <a href="Rotterdam" title="Rotterdam">Rotterdam</a>, with both goals coming from <a href="Mark_Hughes" title="Mark Hughes">Mark Hughes</a>.

Robson was still a regular choice for United during the <a href="1991%E2%80%9392_in_English_football" title="1991–92 in English football">1991–92 season</a> despite competition from much younger players including Webb, <a href="Paul_Ince" title="Paul Ince">Paul Ince</a> and <a href="Andrei_Kanchelskis" title="Andrei Kanchelskis">Andrei Kanchelskis</a>. During that season, he made his 90th and final appearance for the England team, who by this stage were being managed by <a href="Graham_Taylor" title="Graham Taylor">Graham Taylor</a>. But the season ended in disappointment for Robson as United were overhauled in the First Division championship race by <a href="Leeds_United_F.C." title="Leeds United F.C.">Leeds United</a>. He missed their League Cup final victory over <a href="Nottingham_Forest_F.C." title="Nottingham Forest F.C.">Nottingham Forest</a> through injury and his first-team chances were starting to look increasingly numbered as he faced competition from other players within the United squad and the press reported that Ferguson was hoping to sign a new, younger midfielder, although no such addition took place in 1992.

Robson still captained the club in most of his first-team appearances, but <a href="Steve_Bruce" title="Steve Bruce">Steve Bruce</a> was captaining the side when Robson was absent. Robson made just 14 league appearances during the <a href="1992%E2%80%9393_in_English_football" title="1992–93 in English football">1992–93 season</a>, which was the first season of the new Premier League. The club's regular central midfielders for this season were Ince (who had been at United since 1989) and <a href="Brian_McClair" title="Brian McClair">Brian McClair</a> (who was shifted from the attacking positions following the late November arrival of <a href="Eric_Cantona" title="Eric Cantona">Eric Cantona</a>), while his other favoured position on the right side of midfield was either occupied by <a href="Mike_Phelan" title="Mike Phelan">Mike Phelan</a> or the younger, wider-lying Kanchelskis and <a href="Lee_Sharpe" title="Lee Sharpe">Lee Sharpe</a>. With the introduction of squad numbers for the 1993–94 Premier League, Robson was issued with the number 12 shirt, while the number 7 shirt that he had worn in virtually every game of his career went to Cantona instead.

Robson scored on the final day of the season against <a href="Wimbledon_F.C." title="Wimbledon F.C.">Wimbledon</a> – it was his only goal of that campaign. By that point, United were Premier League champions and Robson finally won the league championship medal that he had been trying to gain since his days at West Bromwich Albion some 15 years earlier. It was not just injuries that were restricting the 36-year-old Robson's first-team chances. Cantona had been signed during the <a href="1992%E2%80%9393_in_English_football" title="1992–93 in English football">1992–93 season</a> and played up front with Hughes, while Hughes' former strike-partner McClair had been converted into a midfielder. This counted against Robson and the biggest blow came in the summer of 1993 when United signed Forest's <a href="Roy_Keane" title="Roy Keane">Roy Keane</a>, but even this did not quite signal the end for him at Manchester United.

Robson was still able to make enough appearances for another Premier League champions medal in the <a href="1993%E2%80%9394_in_English_football" title="1993–94 in English football">1993–94 season</a> (15 games, 10 of them as a substitute), and scored one of their four goals in the FA Cup semi-final replay victory over <a href="Oldham_Athletic_A.F.C." title="Oldham Athletic A.F.C.">Oldham</a> at <a href="Maine_Road" title="Maine Road">Maine Road</a>, which would turn out to be his final goal for the club.<a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a> He had found the net on the opening day of the season in a 2–0 win at <a href="Norwich_City_F.C." title="Norwich City F.C.">Norwich City</a>. At the age of 36, he finally appeared in Europe's top club tournament, the <a href="UEFA_Champions_League" title="UEFA Champions League">Champions League</a>, with United reaching the second round. Robson scored a late equaliser in the second round first leg clash with <a href="Galatasaray_S.K._(football)" title="Galatasaray S.K. (football)">Galatasaray</a>, which ended in a 3–3 draw at Old Trafford.<a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a>

Robson was dropped from the squad for the <a href="1994_FA_Cup_final" title="1994 FA Cup final">FA Cup final</a>, a decision which manager Ferguson later admitted was one of the hardest of his career, opting to select the more flexible Sharpe and McClair as the outfield substitutes. His final appearance in a United shirt came on the last day of the league season, 8 May 1994, when United drew 0–0 at home with <a href="Coventry_City_F.C." title="Coventry City F.C.">Coventry City</a>. He had played 461 times for them in all competitions, scoring 99 goals, and was widely regarded as one of their greatest ever players.<a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Middlesbrough">Middlesbrough</h3></div>

Robson's 13-year spell at Manchester United came to an end after nearly 500 appearances and 99 goals in May 1994 when he accepted the role of player-manager at <a href="Middlesbrough_F.C." title="Middlesbrough F.C.">Middlesbrough</a>. From 1994 to 1996, he combined the role with that of England assistant manager (under <a href="Terry_Venables" title="Terry Venables">Terry Venables</a>), and was linked with the manager's job when Venables announced his intention to quit after <a href="UEFA_Euro_1996" title="UEFA Euro 1996">Euro 96</a>, only to rule himself out of the running due to his limited experience. He was not included in new manager <a href="Glenn_Hoddle" title="Glenn Hoddle">Glenn Hoddle</a>'s coaching staff. In 2015, he expressed regret at turning down the opportunity to manage England.

Robson played his final game as a player on 1 January 1997, in a Premier League game against <a href="Arsenal_F.C." title="Arsenal F.C.">Arsenal</a> at <a href="Arsenal_Stadium" title="Arsenal Stadium">Highbury</a> 10 days before his 40th birthday. He claimed in his autobiography that he knew it was the right time to retire as his whole body ached for two weeks afterwards trying to keep up with the livewires <a href="Dennis_Bergkamp" title="Dennis Bergkamp">Dennis Bergkamp</a> and <a href="Ian_Wright" title="Ian Wright">Ian Wright</a>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="International_career">International career</h2></div>

In the summer of 1975, Robson was called up to the England youth team for the "mini World Cup". He played as a centre-half during the tournament, which England won, beating Finland 1–0 in the final.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp26-27-18">[18]</a> He was selected for the <a href="England_national_under-21_football_team" title="England national under-21 football team">England under-21s</a> for the first time in March 1977, but was withdrawn from the squad by his club West Bromwich Albion, who needed him for a league match against Manchester United at Old Trafford.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp30-32-20">[20]</a> Albion drew 2–2, with Robson scoring one of the goals. On 6 February 1979, he finally made his England under-21 debut, albeit as an overage player (he was 22 at the time) as England beat <a href="Wales_national_under-21_football_team" title="Wales national under-21 football team">Wales</a> 1–0 at Swansea's <a href="Vetch_Field" title="Vetch Field">Vetch Field</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp37-39-37">[37]</a><a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> He made his <a href="England_B_national_football_team" class="mw-redirect" title="England B national football team">England B</a> debut on 12 June 1979, and scored after just five minutes to give England a 1–0 lead against Austria B in <a href="Klagenfurt" class="mw-redirect" title="Klagenfurt">Klagenfurt</a>, although the match was abandoned after 60 minutes.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp37-39-37">[37]</a><a href="#cite_note-England_B_results-39">[39]</a> He appeared three times for England B in all, captaining the side on his third and final appearance as England drew 0–0 with Algeria's A team in <a href="Algiers" title="Algiers">Algiers</a> on 11 December 1990.<a href="#cite_note-England_B_results-39">[39]</a>

On 6 February 1980, Robson made his full international debut, and his first appearance at <a href="Wembley_Stadium_(1923)" title="Wembley Stadium (1923)">Wembley</a>, as <a href="England_national_football_team" title="England national football team">England</a> beat the <a href="Republic_of_Ireland_national_football_team" title="Republic of Ireland national football team">Republic of Ireland</a> 2–0 in a <a href="UEFA_Euro_1980" title="UEFA Euro 1980">UEFA Euro 1980</a> qualifier.<a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a> His second cap came in the final preparation game for the finals—a 2–1 win over <a href="Australia_men's_national_soccer_team" title="Australia men's national soccer team">Australia</a> in Sydney—but he didn't feature in the tournament itself, from which England were eliminated in the first round. On 9 September 1981, he marked his 13th cap by scoring his first goal for England, in a 2–1 defeat to <a href="Norway_national_football_team" title="Norway national football team">Norway</a> in Oslo. The match is remembered mainly for Norwegian commentator <a href="Bj%C3%B8rge_Lillelien" title="Bjørge Lillelien">Bjørge Lillelien</a>'s taunting of England following the final whistle.<a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a>

England coach <a href="Ron_Greenwood" title="Ron Greenwood">Ron Greenwood</a> started to feature Robson regularly in his midfield, selecting him for the first dozen internationals after the European Championships finished, including all eight of the qualifying games for the <a href="1982_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1982 FIFA World Cup">1982 FIFA World Cup</a> in Spain, through which England earned a place in the finals. His England career was flourishing as the World Cup neared; he scored in a 4–0 thrashing of <a href="Northern_Ireland_national_football_team" title="Northern Ireland national football team">Northern Ireland</a> at Wembley and added a brace in the last warm-up game in <a href="Helsinki" title="Helsinki">Helsinki</a> against <a href="Finland_national_football_team" title="Finland national football team">Finland</a>. Robson was in the record books for 20 years thanks to a goal scored against <a href="France_national_football_team" title="France national football team">France</a> in England's opening game of the World Cup at <a href="San_Mam%C3%A9s_Stadium_(1913)" title="San Mamés Stadium (1913)">Estadio San Mamés</a>, home of <a href="Athletic_Bilbao" title="Athletic Bilbao">Athletic Bilbao</a>. It came after just 27 seconds of the match – the third fastest in World Cup finals history until 2002 when <a href="Hakan_%C5%9E%C3%BCk%C3%BCr" title="Hakan Şükür">Hakan Şükür</a> scored after ten seconds in the third-place match against <a href="South_Korea_national_football_team" title="South Korea national football team">South Korea</a>. For his achievement, Robson received an inscribed gold watch, which he still occasionally wears.<a href="#cite_note-42">[42]</a>

Robson captained England for the first time on 17 November 1982, leading the side to a 3–0 win over <a href="Greece_national_football_team" title="Greece national football team">Greece</a> in <a href="Thessaloniki" title="Thessaloniki">Salonika</a>. He scored a <a href="Hat-trick" title="Hat-trick">hat-trick</a> in England's 8–0 victory over <a href="Turkey_national_football_team" title="Turkey national football team">Turkey</a> in <a href="Istanbul" title="Istanbul">Istanbul</a> on 14 November 1984. "Captain Marvel", as he was nicknamed, helped England qualify for the <a href="1986_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1986 FIFA World Cup">1986 FIFA World Cup</a> in Mexico. By now, he was considered by England manager <a href="Bobby_Robson" title="Bobby Robson">Bobby Robson</a> to be the best player in England.<a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a> His hopes of glory were crushed by re-aggravating an existing shoulder injury in England's second game of the group stages, against <a href="Morocco_national_football_team" title="Morocco national football team">Morocco</a>, which prevented him participating further in the tournament. The enforced change to England's formation benefited them, no longer having to protect an injured player, and – despite also losing vice-captain <a href="Ray_Wilkins" title="Ray Wilkins">Ray Wilkins</a> to a red card and subsequent ban – successive 3–0 victories resulted, until England's run finally came to an end with a 2–1 defeat against <a href="Argentina_national_football_team" title="Argentina national football team">Argentina</a> in the quarter final. The same shoulder injury was to trouble him for several weeks after the competition.

Over the next two years, Robson returned to the side to lead them through qualifying for <a href="UEFA_Euro_1988" title="UEFA Euro 1988">UEFA Euro 1988</a>. He personally played well for England, particularly with a fine individual goal against eventual champions the <a href="Netherlands_national_football_team" title="Netherlands national football team">Netherlands</a>, but was unable to prevent them from going out in the first phase of the competition as England lost all three of their group games.

Robson continued his international career until 1991, also helping England to reach the <a href="1990_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1990 FIFA World Cup">1990 FIFA World Cup</a>. For the second World Cup in succession, his role was limited as he once again suffered an injury in the second match (against the Netherlands) that was to keep him out of the rest of the tournament. Likewise, England's revamped formation played better without their captain, whose place in the team was taken by <a href="David_Platt_(footballer)" class="mw-redirect" title="David Platt (footballer)">David Platt</a> during the knock-out stages, as England finished fourth.

Robson was picked by both Bobby Robson and <a href="Tony_Adams" title="Tony Adams">Tony Adams</a> in their England dream teams, in their respective autobiographies of all the best players they had worked or played with.<a href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a> Adams said additionally that Robson had a "terrific football brain" and had exceptional awareness and anticipation; often intercepting or knowing where the ball would land ahead of other players. Adams said this separated outstanding players from good players, and Robson would fit into the category of "the best".<a href="#cite_note-45">[45]</a> <a href="Paul_Gascoigne" title="Paul Gascoigne">Paul Gascoigne</a> stated in his 2004 book Gazza: My Story that Robson was the best footballer he had ever shared a pitch with and the best player of his generation. Additionally, <a href="Peter_Beardsley" title="Peter Beardsley">Peter Beardsley</a> named him in his "Perfect XI" selection, football magazine Four Four Two's interviews with current and former players of their "dream team" selections.<a href="#cite_note-46">[46]</a> His final game for England was a European Championship qualifier played against Turkey in October 1991.<a href="#cite_note-47">[47]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Style_of_play">Style of play</h2></div>

A well-rounded <a href="Midfielder#Box-to-box_midfielder" title="Midfielder">box-to-box midfielder</a>, Robson had a good goal-scoring record, and strong anticipation, movement, and timing on and off the ball. He was quick, fiercely competitive and brave, and possessed high levels of stamina. He tackled, passed well, and was also a good header of the ball.<a href="#cite_note-48">[48]</a><a href="#cite_note-49">[49]</a>

Robson had accepted Middlesbrough's offer to become player-manager at the end of the <a href="1993%E2%80%9394_in_English_football" title="1993–94 in English football">1993–94 season</a>, and made a dream start to his managerial career as the club won the <a href="Football_League_Championship" class="mw-redirect" title="Football League Championship">Division One</a> title and promotion to the <a href="Premier_League" title="Premier League">Premier League</a>. Robson oversaw Boro's final season at <a href="Ayresome_Park" title="Ayresome Park">Ayresome Park</a> before relocation to the new 30,000-seat <a href="Riverside_Stadium" title="Riverside Stadium">Riverside Stadium</a> on the banks of the <a href="River_Tees" title="River Tees">River Tees</a>. He was assisted by <a href="Viv_Anderson" title="Viv Anderson">Viv Anderson</a>, another former Manchester United and England player.

Middlesbrough made an ambitious return to the Premier League and attracted expensively-signed big names like <a href="Nick_Barmby" title="Nick Barmby">Nick Barmby</a> and the Brazilians <a href="Juninho_Paulista" title="Juninho Paulista">Juninho</a> and <a href="Branco_(soccer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Branco (soccer)">Branco</a>. They went fourth in the Premier League in October 1995, sparking hopes of <a href="UEFA_Europa_League" title="UEFA Europa League">UEFA Cup</a> qualification, but an injury crisis sparked a slump in form and they slid down the table to finish 12th. In the summer of 1996, Robson paid £7 million to sign the <a href="Juventus_FC" title="Juventus FC">Juventus</a> and <a href="Italy_national_football_team" title="Italy national football team">Italy</a> striker <a href="Fabrizio_Ravanelli" title="Fabrizio Ravanelli">Fabrizio Ravanelli</a>, who became the highest-paid player in English football with a weekly wage of £50,000 as well as being one of the most expensively signed.

In the <a href="1996%E2%80%9397_in_English_football" title="1996–97 in English football">1996–97 season</a>, Robson led Boro to both domestic cup finals, but they were on the losing side both times, losing 1–0 in a replay to <a href="Leicester_City_F.C." title="Leicester City F.C.">Leicester City</a> in the <a href="1997_Football_League_Cup_final" title="1997 Football League Cup final">League Cup final</a> replay and 2–0 in the <a href="1997_FA_Cup_final" title="1997 FA Cup final">FA Cup final</a> to <a href="Chelsea_F.C." title="Chelsea F.C.">Chelsea</a>, while they suffered relegation in the Premier League. However, this relegation would have been avoided if they had not been deducted three points in mid-season for cancelling a fixture at late notice due to many players being unfit through illness or injury. However, at least Boro had the consolation of staying alive in the league up to the last day of the season. Boro were already bottom of the league at the turn of 1997, but when the points were deducted they found themselves seven points adrift of safety with the 17th placed team having a game in hand.<a href="#cite_note-50">[50]</a> However, results slowly improved over the next few weeks and by the end of March a succession of good results had seen Boro climb out of the relegation zone. This, coupled with the excellent cup runs, saw Robson voted <a href="Premier_League_Manager_of_the_Month" title="Premier League Manager of the Month">Premier League Manager of the Month</a> for March 1997.<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> Robson made one playing appearance this season on New Years Day, starting in a 2–0 defeat away to Arsenal.<a href="#cite_note-52">[52]</a> This proved to be his last game as a professional footballer, though he did not announce his retirement from playing until later in the season.

Despite these setbacks the board kept faith in Robson and he repaid their loyalty with automatic promotion back to the Premier League in the <a href="1997%E2%80%9398_in_English_football" title="1997–98 in English football">1997–98 season</a>. Again, the club missed out on cup success at the final hurdle with a 2–0 defeat against Chelsea in the <a href="1998_Football_League_Cup_final" title="1998 Football League Cup final">League Cup final</a>. Boro would remain in the Premier League for the next 11 seasons, with Robson remaining as manager for three of those seasons. They finished ninth in 1999, 12th in 2000 and 14th in 2001.

In November 2000, he criticised his players following a string of poor results which had dragged them into a relegation battle.<a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> A month later Middlesbrough brought in former England coach <a href="Terry_Venables" title="Terry Venables">Terry Venables</a> as head coach to assist Robson, who remained as manager. The new managerial partnership saw Boro's form improve and they avoided relegation.<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a> Robson left the club "by mutual consent" in June 2001, having failed to bring the club higher than ninth in the league, or to bring them any silverware.<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a> His successor was <a href="Steve_McClaren" title="Steve McClaren">Steve McClaren</a>, the Manchester United assistant manager. Despite being linked with a string of managerial vacancies, Robson would not return to management for more than two years.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Bradford_City">Bradford City</h3></div>

Following the resignation of <a href="Mick_McCarthy" title="Mick McCarthy">Mick McCarthy</a>, Robson emerged in January 2003 as the bookmakers' favourite to become the new <a href="Republic_of_Ireland_national_football_team" title="Republic of Ireland national football team">Republic of Ireland</a> manager,<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> but the job went instead to <a href="Brian_Kerr_(Irish_football_manager)" title="Brian Kerr (Irish football manager)">Brian Kerr</a>.<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> In November 2003 Robson was set to become <a href="Nigeria_national_football_team" title="Nigeria national football team">Nigeria</a>'s national coach, but the appointment was blocked by the Nigerian sports minister due to doubts that Robson's wage demands could be met.<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> Later that month, Robson did make his football comeback more than two years after leaving Middlesbrough. He accepted the offer to manage <a href="Football_League_Championship" class="mw-redirect" title="Football League Championship">Division One</a> strugglers <a href="Bradford_City_A.F.C." title="Bradford City A.F.C.">Bradford City</a>.<a href="#cite_note-59">[59]</a> Robson won his first game in charge as Bradford fought back from 2–0 down to beat <a href="Millwall_F.C." title="Millwall F.C.">Millwall</a> 3–2.<a href="#cite_note-60">[60]</a> But he recorded just six more wins as Bradford took only 22 points from 27 games under Robson and were relegated, finishing second from bottom. Robson's short-term contract was not renewed and he handed the reins over to his assistant <a href="Colin_Todd" title="Colin Todd">Colin Todd</a>.<a href="#cite_note-61">[61]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="West_Bromwich_Albion_2">West Bromwich Albion</h3></div>

Robson's third management job began on 9 November 2004, when he agreed to return to his old club <a href="West_Bromwich_Albion_F.C." title="West Bromwich Albion F.C.">West Bromwich Albion</a> as manager – 23 years after his departure as a player.<a href="#cite_note-62">[62]</a> His first match in charge ended in a 2–1 home defeat to his former club Middlesbrough.<a href="#cite_note-63">[63]</a> A 4–0 loss away to local rivals <a href="Birmingham_City_F.C." title="Birmingham City F.C.">Birmingham City</a> on 18 December meant that Albion were bottom of the <a href="Premier_League" title="Premier League">Premier League</a> on Christmas Day, a position from which no team had previously escaped relegation from the Premier League.<a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a> Robson was the subject of derisory chants from Albion supporters during the game, a complete contrast to his status as a club hero when he had taken to the field as a player.<a href="#cite_note-65">[65]</a> The team were also bottom going into the last game of the season. However, Robson and his players defied all the odds to stay up thanks to a 2–0 home win over <a href="Portsmouth_F.C." title="Portsmouth F.C.">Portsmouth</a> on the final day of the season, coupled with favourable results from elsewhere. Despite some significant new signings in the 2005 close season, his team failed to build on this achievement in 2005–06 though, and Albion were relegated with two matches left to play. They had failed to win any of their final 13 Premier League games.<a href="#cite_note-66">[66]</a> Robson left the club "by mutual consent" on 18 September 2006, following a disappointing start to the season with The Baggies in 9th place in the Championship with only three wins from their first eight games.<a href="#cite_note-67">[67]</a>

After his departure from West Brom, Robson spent eight months out of the game. He was interested in becoming the <a href="England_national_under-21_football_team" title="England national under-21 football team">England under-21</a> team's full-time manager, but the job went instead to <a href="Stuart_Pearce" title="Stuart Pearce">Stuart Pearce</a> on a part-time basis.<a href="#cite_note-68">[68]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sheffield_United">Sheffield United</h3></div>

On 22 May 2007, it was announced at a press conference that Robson would be the new manager of <a href="Sheffield_United_F.C." title="Sheffield United F.C.">Sheffield United</a>, following the resignation of <a href="Neil_Warnock" title="Neil Warnock">Neil Warnock</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robson_unveiled_as_Sheff_Utd_boss-69">[69]</a> He was assisted by <a href="Brian_Kidd" title="Brian Kidd">Brian Kidd</a>, who had been assistant manager at Manchester United during Robson's final three seasons there.

His first match in charge was a home match against <a href="Colchester_United_F.C." title="Colchester United F.C.">Colchester United</a> on 11 August in a 2–2 draw.<a href="#cite_note-United_fail_to_live_up_to_the_hype-70">[70]</a> His first win was three days later in a 3–1 win against <a href="Chesterfield_F.C." title="Chesterfield F.C.">Chesterfield</a> in the <a href="EFL_Cup" title="EFL Cup">League Cup</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Robson's_charges_start_to_get_it_right-71">[71]</a> United subsequently collected nine points in their first 10 <a href="English_football_league_system" title="English football league system">league matches</a>, leaving the Blades in 20th place in <a href="EFL_Championship" title="EFL Championship">the Championship</a> and prompting Robson to comment about the situation.<a href="#cite_note-Be_patient_says_Robbo-72">[72]</a> After a string of inconsistent results and a 2–0 <a href="Steel_City_derby" title="Steel City derby">derby</a> defeat to <a href="Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C." title="Sheffield Wednesday F.C.">Sheffield Wednesday</a>, Robson publicly stated that he had lost patience with his players.<a href="#cite_note-73">[73]</a> Following calls for Robson's resignation, Sheffield United chairman <a href="Kevin_McCabe_(businessman)" title="Kevin McCabe (businessman)">Kevin McCabe</a> gave Robson his public backing and called for patience and unity.<a href="#cite_note-74">[74]</a>

Robson has since expressed his disappointment at not having the funds he was expecting to help rebuild the team.<a href="#cite_note-75">[75]</a>

After a 0–0 draw at home to <a href="Scunthorpe_United_F.C." title="Scunthorpe United F.C.">Scunthorpe United</a> on 9 February 2008, Robson came under increasing pressure from fans urging the board to sack the manager.<a href="#cite_note-76">[76]</a> Consequently, Robson was summoned to a meeting in Brussels on 13 February with McCabe, as the club considered its response to the scenes which followed the goalless draw against Scunthorpe.<a href="#cite_note-77">[77]</a> In an interview with <a href="BBC_Radio_Sheffield" title="BBC Radio Sheffield">BBC Radio Sheffield</a>, Robson stated that his team could have won the match with Scunthorpe if they had better support from the fans.<a href="#cite_note-78">[78]</a> After his meeting with McCabe, on 14 February he was "relieved of his first-team duties" before later in the day leaving Sheffield United after turning down another role with the club.<a href="#cite_note-79">[79]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Return_to_Manchester_United">Return to Manchester United</h3></div>

In March 2008, 14 years after he had last played for them, Robson returned to Manchester United to work as an ambassador, for an initial period of 12 months. He worked alongside <a href="Bobby_Charlton" title="Bobby Charlton">Sir Bobby Charlton</a> to help United 'promote its commercial and charitable aims'.<a href="#cite_note-80">[80]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Thailand_national_team">Thailand national team</h3></div>

On 23 September 2009, Robson agreed to become coach of the <a href="Thailand_national_football_team" title="Thailand national football team">Thailand national team</a> in his first foray into international football management.<a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a> He was contracted to manage the team through to the <a href="2014_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2014 FIFA World Cup">2014 World Cup</a>. On 14 November, Robson celebrated his first competitive match in charge of the team with a 3–1 away victory against <a href="Singapore_national_football_team" title="Singapore national football team">Singapore</a> in a <a href="2011_AFC_Asian_Cup_qualification" title="2011 AFC Asian Cup qualification">2011 AFC Asian Cup qualifying</a> group match.<a href="#cite_note-82">[82]</a> On 18 November, Robson then suffered his first loss – a 1–0 defeat against Singapore on home soil. In January 2010, this was followed by two goalless draws with <a href="Jordan_national_football_team" title="Jordan national football team">Jordan</a> and <a href="Iran_national_football_team" title="Iran national football team">Iran</a> during qualification. On 3 March 2010, Robson's Thailand suffered a 1–0 defeat by the hands of Iran in <a href="Azadi_Stadium" title="Azadi Stadium">Tehran</a> in their final Group E game, effectively ending their hopes of qualifying for <a href="2011_AFC_Asian_Cup" title="2011 AFC Asian Cup">2011 AFC Asian Cup</a>.

On 11 August, Robson led Thailand to another victory against Singapore with a score of 1–0 on home soil. In September 2010, Robson overcame <a href="Bob_Houghton" title="Bob Houghton">Bob Houghton</a>'s <a href="India_men's_national_football_team" class="mw-redirect" title="India men's national football team">India</a> in a friendly with a score of 2–1 away from home. In December 2010, Robson failed to bring Thailand past the Group A of the <a href="2010_AFF_Championship" title="2010 AFF Championship">2010 AFF Championship</a> after managing only two draws against <a href="Laos_national_football_team" title="Laos national football team">Laos</a> and <a href="Malaysia_national_football_team" title="Malaysia national football team">Malaysia</a> and losing to <a href="Indonesia_national_football_team" title="Indonesia national football team">Indonesia</a>. He resigned as manager on 8 June 2011,<a href="#cite_note-83">[83]</a> and has since returned to his role as an Official Club Ambassador for Manchester United.<a href="#cite_note-84">[84]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Life_outside_football">Life outside football</h2></div>

Robson has been married to his wife Denise since 2 June 1979. Denise is from the <a href="Great_Barr" title="Great Barr">Great Barr</a> area and met Robson early on in his playing career with West Bromwich Albion.<a href="#cite_note-Robbo_pp37-39-37">[37]</a> The couple have three children: Claire (born 17 September 1980),<a href="#cite_note-85">[85]</a> Charlotte (born 17 June 1982),<a href="#cite_note-86">[86]</a> and Ben (born 2 September 1988).<a href="#cite_note-Robson_131-87">[87]</a> In 2000, Robson reportedly had an affair with <a href="Sky_Sports" title="Sky Sports">Sky Sports</a> reporter <a href="Clare_Tomlinson" title="Clare Tomlinson">Clare Tomlinson</a>.<a href="#cite_note-88">[88]</a>

In March 2010, <a href="The_Daily_Telegraph" title="The Daily Telegraph">The Daily Telegraph</a> published an article claiming that retired England footballer <a href="Steve_McMahon_(footballer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Steve McMahon (footballer)">Steve McMahon</a> and Robson had used their celebrity status to encourage investors to purchase <a href="Green_belt_(United_Kingdom)" title="Green belt (United Kingdom)">Green belt</a> land plots in Hounslow with a very limited chance of return.<a href="#cite_note-94">[94]</a>

On 18 July 2011, on an episode of the <a href="Channel_4" title="Channel 4">Channel 4</a> television programme <a href="Dispatches_(TV_series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Dispatches (TV series)">Dispatches</a> entitled "How to Buy a Football Club", Robson was secretly filmed by reporters during an undercover investigation.
