Happy 71st birthday today to our greatest player (IMHO). Let's ruin Toney's return and respect JR today with a win in the smoke.

My heart sunk when I first saw this thread because I thought something had happened to him, he's not been well recently.

Happy Birthday Robbo and stay well.

I thought the same as you sniffer and felt very upset.

Happy Birthday Robbo and may your health improve.

As someone who started supporting during the Carey era, I obviously saw all the years Robbo played and why he was not regarded as the best player in Europe, I will never know. Should have won personal awards by the dozen.

Yeah thought exactly the same momentarily.

Now then, a fit Robbo in his prime playing today I would be a lot more confident. Bet he could give young Elanga a few tips too.

I can still hear the crowd shouting skin him Robbo every time he got the ball and he never disappointed because he skinned his full back every time.

He is looking really unwell now.

So sad to see him like that.

Heard he is in a bit of a bad way.

Pray for Robbo.

On the inside or on the outside. With his right foot or with his left foot. Fullbacks didn't know if they were coming or going. Robbo made even the best ones look ridiculous.
