But I don't think it'll be a long term injury, it's not as serious as the one he got last season.
Could be back for next weekend.

Robinson scored yesterday. Your point has not been proven.
Just like we didn't need to sign a striker in January, as we still got promoted.

Yes i was waiting for someone to pipe up a out Robinson scoring yesterday moylan laid it on a plate for him,did he do anything else,?
Bbm hardly played him last season why ? His legs have gone and if you think he is a good replacement for salec, he could not play 2 games a week.
Kellyman was the man that replaced salec last season in our promotion Robinson did not feature much apart from clapping on the side of the pitch.

I think the problem is that fans think they a right to know everything when they don't.
If he said "Salech may be fit for Tuesday" and he doesn't then people are disappointed when he doesn't play. So it's better to make it sound like he's definitely out, if he does then play then it's a bonus.

What about when Salech missed a tap in the other week?
Robinson had one good chance and took it.
I'm glad we didn't sign another striker because it would be a panic signing, that's how you end up with the likes of Etete.

Salec missed a tap in more reason to have an alternative striker, Robinson had 1 good chance yes 1 chance that's why he was taken off ,
we could have signed a real quality striker why would we have to panic buy when we had 4 months?

If the available players didn't fit the right profile then no point signing them, better to go with what we have.

But what if what we have are not good enough? (I know that you believe they are)
Seems like it's almost impossible to find players with "the right profile" as we've had three transfer windows now where only a handful of players with the right profile have been recruited.
We seem to be fishing in a tiny pool and when you take into account that some of those with the right profile will be too expensive, some won't be interested in Cardiff like the Norwegian lad perhaps it's no wonder the squad is so thin on the ground.
Perhaps the right profile needs to be tweaked just slightly in January as I cannot believe there are not numerous players who would improve our squad without ruining the current dynamic.
