Bobby Robson, The Soccer Legend, Fighting Cancer For The Fourth Time

SOCCER legend Bobby Robson is fighting cancer for a fourth time.

The 73-year-old former England manager is having an operation on Wednesday to remove a brain tumor.

Doctors at first thought he had a stroke after he felt ill at a football match a fortnight ago.

But they found Sir Bobby, one of the nation’s favorite sporting heroes, had a tumor.

Sir Bobby said: “The tumor is in my brain, which sounds bad, but it is in a position where it can be removed relatively easily and it’s extremely small, the size of a grape.”

He has previously battled cancer in 1992, 1995, and in May this year had a tumor removed from his lung.

Sir Bobby was England manager for eight years
