Better not to call him that to avoid confusion with a miserable ticket tout.

Mancini can't be a 'Sir', as he's not citizen of he Commonwealth.

Only one Sir Bobby, Bobby Robson.
Rip, an absolute gentleman, football needs more like him in the modern game.

I'll never be adverse to "Sir Roberto" for our Bobby Manc.
Even Bobby Moore and the ticket tout Charlton need their surnames mentioned when referring to as "sirs"
But there will only ever be one real "Sir Bobby" and that is Mr. Robson, R.I.P. three years on.

True, but I don't think they're allowed to use the 'Sir'.
EDIT: Just checked on Wikipedia. Wogan can, as he has dual British / Irish citizenship.<br /><br />-- 01 Aug 2012, 00:53 --<br /><br />

Bobby Moore was never knighted.

Then even more of a case for Bobby Robson to be the only "Sir Bobby" !!
Moore was awarded the OBE, however....... obviously way too late, as I'm confident he will be the only victorious England captain to lift the world cup!!
