But Sir Bobby has called for Alan Shearer to be appointed Newcastle manager ... and I honestly believe he would JOIN IN the chanting by Toon fans to have the ex-England skipper made boss.
The match kicks off at 6.15pm, with tickets available on the gate.
But Sir Bobby will be on the James' Park pitch half an hour before kick off when he will meet the players before the Sir Bobby Robson Trophy match.
Sir Bobby said: ‘It will be such a special day for me personally. My cancer foundation has been a phenomenal success, helped by the generosity of so many people.
‘And, of course, although it is my name on the foundation, there are so many good people who work tirelessly behind the scenes.’
