    What a lad. Knows how to keep out of trouble. Did the right thing avoiding the bother.

    We’d spotted him…
    And then: THREE WHOLE MINUTES.
    4 subs and at least 2 minutes of wasted time in goal mouth shenanigans

    Again let off by the officials. We don’t seem to get away with much.

    Thought Robbo played well Seems a very decent bloke who no doubt would have preferred to be playing in Red if money was put to the side.

    Good job only 3 minutes were added on given how poor our 2nd half display was.

    Is your point that he should be in trouble for being sat down?

    Whilst a dozen or more 'professional footballers' are doing their best impression of a bar brawl? The guy that leisurely waits for the ref to regain control is the one who should be reprimanded?

    Seems a great lad from bits I’ve seen about him. I wish he’d have stayed with us.

    Not right good with throw-ins though.

    Yes he does, heard from a very close friend of his that he hates it down there but he's on 20k a week. He had an excellent game and got a great reception in the corner, clapping the reds fans back.

    I'm sure his throws have got longer. After today I'm convinced he's some sort of cyborg.

    Yes I think he would rather be playing for us, but ask Conway to get cheque book out and sign someone useful who wants to wear red and he will look the other way

    Harry Redknapp made him a multi millionaire with one contract of five years on apparently twenty grand a week. He's in his 30s now and out of contract at the end of this season. Wherever he plays next season I don't think he will be getting the same money with little resale value and funds tight at clubs because of the pandemic. Maybe we will think about bringing him back if terms could be reached.

    I was in the West Stand, but heard the clapping. Quite moving really.

    30+ year old with no resale value. It’s nailed on he’ll be on our radar

    Contrast his long throws with those medium ones - at best - from the Fridge.

    As proved himself as a good professional.
    Played in the second tier for most of his career.
    However his move to Brum set him up for life financially and worked out perfect for him.
    Hats off Robbo you deserved your luck.
    Harry looked after you there.
    Also he always puts a shift in.

    We've proven that we'll break our usual transfer policy occasionally when it will benefit the team. Personally I'd have Robbo back in a heartbeat. If he'd been playing for us today instead of Sibbick, we'd have won. I really like Toby by the way, but yesterday definitely wasn't one of his finer games.
