Sad news just breaking here that the much loved former footballer and Spanish TV personality Michael Robinson has passed away at just 61. He was a real big name here for his football punditry and a great guy all round. RIP.

He was a decent player. R.I.P.1

RIP. I was at the '86 League Cup Final when Oxford beat QPR 3 0 and sat right by the steps on the way down from the balcony. As he walked past us he was absolutely distraught, no-one could console him.

Took a different path to many ex-players by playing and then retiring abroad and made a career as a broadcaster in Spain.

RIP, I was always very impressed that a former British player could become a pundit in another country speaking in their language2

Always thought he was a bit different as a player. A terrible age to go. RIP.1

Whole hearted and committed player who had to live in the shadows of Rush and Dalglish otherwise I'm sure his stay at Liverpool would have been longer. It's also one thing to become a pundit but another to be a successful one in a foreign country.

He was a fine player. A player that I am sure was greatly appreciated by his teammates and fans for whoever he played for.

RIP Michael. Surprised he only made 280 odd appearances (71 goals) over 21 years in English football. He seemed to have a much bigger presence than that. Maybe it was the big £750,000 move from PNE to Man city in 1979 that made him loom larger in the memory.0
