Robinson looks like a footballer, he loves it

He is the first photo on the Instagram post, talking to Issac Davies.

I do not believe that Robinson will be going anywhere, our two main strikers will be Salech and Robinson, with Etete and Davies as backups, any money we are going to spend will be on other players needed :thumbup:
Amazes me that most want Robinson gone when he was our top scorer 12 goals last season in not a full season, in a very poor team.
Only at Cardiff city :laughing6:

I don't think it's that 'people want him gone' - it's more likely that they think he will go.

Rumours that there was interest from a championship club, approx £2m.

Considering he's not getting any younger, getting a profit that could be reinvested in a younger, more energetic player isn't exactly a bad option.

Because he's lazy.

Because he blames other players when things don't go his way.

Because he throws his hands up in the air constantly.

Because he's not someone who will fit into a system we now have where we'll play as a team.

Because of those twelve goals, a lot of them came within a short space of time and he was missing the rest of the time - not just last season but in previous seasons.

Because he has a rotten injury record.

Agree with you on this - it's mad!

We've not exactly been blessed with goalscorers since Keiffer left us 4 years ago. In that period of time we've struggled against relegation, had managers (barring Lamouchi) absolutely obsessed with passing around at the back and generally become a striker's graveyard!

For all we know, CR47 might do well in a BBM system. For me, Robinson should tear up League 1 and we'd be mad to sell him.

I couldn't care less if he waves his arms about, looks lazy occasionally (but does he really!?) and sometimes gets injured (that's football). I believe he'd get 15 to 20 goals in League 1.

Careful what you wish for because competent strikers don't grow on trees.

New training top looks nice. I wonder if we will have a kit with that colour scheme?

That should be announced this week as last years was the tail end of June.

So they have the light blue colour scheme on the training tops.
Hinting at similar things for the kits.
