Sounds about right. 0 goals in 32 games for Northampton.
He scored his only goal last week, a screamer.Not correct.
Will never forget him tearing apart the then-not-quite-completely-past-it taribo west. One of the most unfulfilled Albion youth prospects ever. Still, only needs to make £750 a week at that level to live a pretty comfortable existence, so guess he's fine with it.
I don't understand it, how can a player with such potential go from scoring 2 hat tricks for us in 2 months at the age of 16/17 to drop to playing non league about 7 years later.
Would be ok if it was index linked and payable till he retires. Unfortunately, he has to be reasonably successful to maintain that he's only going to earn it for a few more years!!! Will need to start thinking about life after football!

I have posted this before - but a senior player who had been at top level clubs gave the opinion to a trusted friend early on that Robinson would not make it as he did not have what it takes between his ears. I thought it sounded like rubbish at the time - but he has not fulfilled the potential that we all wished. There must be many things that go to make a successful career, or which talent is only one.
