Older.RIP. Was he older or younger than Bobby?
Jackie ( born 1935 ) was couple years older than his brother Bobby. ( born 1937 ) Very sad times for his family. RIPRIP. Was he older or younger than Bobby?
Im wondering if they managed to patch up their differences before he passed.RIP, thoughts go out to his family, especially Sir Bobby.
They didn’t talk?Rip.

I was just going to post a similar note about this - they fell out for many years as Jack accused Bobby of leaving their family and their mum but also Jack had been disrespectful about Bobby's wife. I think they were just 2 totally different characters but still 2 brothers who won the World Cup together in 1966 - how good is that ?!!RIP Big Jack
Watching the BBC then it was lovely of them to show him handing the lifetime achievement award to Sir Bobby at the Sports Personality of the year awards.
His words on Bobby nearly brought a tear to my ear and I'm glad I seen it as I thought they were still not talking.
Not the place to discuss it but as far as i'm aware no, i'm hoping they reconciled at some point before Jack's passing though.They didn’t talk?
That moment in 2008 had me choking back the tears.I was just going to post a similar note about this - they fell out for many years as Jack accused Bobby of leaving their family and their mum but also Jack had been disrespectful about Bobby's wife.

However he came on that stage in 2008 and presented it to Bobby saying he was the "greatest footballer he'd ever seen and he's my brother."
RIP he was one hard footballer and a pretty decent manager especially for Ireland
