Thread: Neil Robinson ex Swansea defender

    Neil Robinson ex Swansea defender

    Was just reading that he passed away quite suddenly a couple of days ago. For those who remember their rise through the divisions, plus our encounters in the early 80s, I always thought he was a really good full/wing back. Hated seeing him in their line up.

    ....meant to add that he is thought to be the first vegan footballer.

    He was a regular on Call Rob wasn't he? Always seemed to be so full of life on there - I see he was sixty five, but he came across as a lot younger than that. I remember him as an energetic, attacking full back - the sort of player who could have prospered in the modern game.

    RIP

    Not a regular listener to Call Rob but now you mention it I remember his contributions and a few times as a Radio Wales summariser.

    You would have thought that with a vegan diet he would have a healthy heart ❤

    What a shame 😔
