Speaking on Setanta Sports in a recorded interview that is broadcast on
Friday evening at 6.30pm, former Newcastle boss Sir Bobby Robson gave his
thoughts on the club's current status and recent history:
"I took the club over when it was bottom of the league and in the last
three years I was there it was third, fourth and fifth. We were in the top
five for the last three years.
"I lost my job rather abruptly, I couldn't believe it. I was stunned, I
couldn't believe it.
"I didn't lose two consecutive matches and I lost my job, it was crazy.
Without being egotistical, the club has suffered ever since.
"They are a long way from where they were and where they should be.
"They've had a very mixed season. They had a good start, some people say
the best start in 10 years, but that's just a start.
"But in some cases they have played very poorly. Recently there has been
a slight improvement, they just drew against Arsenal, but they could have
won.
"For me that was their best performance yet, I was delighted about that.
There was a fury and bite about the team and a real passion to win. I was
delighted about that."
