Newcastle United and Wales striker Craig Bellamy, who was brought to St James’ Park by Sir Bobby Robson from Coventry in 2001, has praised the man who played a massive part in his career.
The club sacked Robson on Monday morning after five years at the club due to poor results on the pitch.
Craig Bellamy said:
"Bobby is a great manager. He brought me to this club and I will always remember him for that.
"He gave me the opportunity to play on a massive stage.
"Being part of Newcastle United is a dream for me and I owe it all to him.
"Whatever I go on to achieve in my career, Bobby will have played a massive part in it.
