Theo Larayan Ronaldo Shadiki Robinson (born 22 January 1989) is a footballer who plays as a striker for Southern League Premier Division Central club Bromsgrove Sporting.
Robinson signed with Scottish Premiership side Motherwell in August 2015 and moved on to Port Vale in January 2016, and then Lincoln City in October 2016.
[4] He made his first-team debut against Queens Park Rangers on 22 April 2006, coming on as a half-time substitute for Darius Henderson in a 2–1 victory at Loftus Road.
Robinson made his Premier League debut as a late substitute in Watford's final game of the 2006–07 season, a 1–1 draw with Newcastle United at Vicarage Road on 13 May.
[6] In August 2007, Robinson joined League Two side Hereford United on a four-month loan, alongside teammate Toumani Diagouraga.
[15] In July 2009, Robinson signed for League One club Huddersfield Town on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
[16] He chose Huddersfield ahead of several other clubs, including Swindon Town, who had a "verbal agreement" to sign Robinson from Watford for £275,000 according to manager Danny Wilson.
[17] Swindon chairman Andrew Fitton stated that "We agreed a deal with the club and player but there are shenanigans going on that we have warned certain people about.
[22] He returned to Huddersfield in early November through injury, with the need for an operation on his knee, cutting his loan spell short.
[24] In February 2011, Robinson signed a three-month loan deal at Championship club Derby County, with a view to a permanent move.
He impressed manager Nigel Clough, who told BBC Radio Derby that "hopefully Theo will be here next season as well, as one of five or six strikers.
[28] He answered his critics by scoring a brace in Derby's 3–2 defeat at Peterborough United, taking his tally for the season up to six, making him the club's top-scorer.
[50] On 7 January, he scored both of the "Imps" goals in a 2–2 draw with Championship side Ipswich Town in an FA Cup third round tie at Portman Road.
[52] Robinson returned to EFL League One when he joined Southend United for an undisclosed fee on a two-and-a-half-year contract on 31 January 2017.
[52] Manager Phil Brown had rejected the chance to sign Robinson the previous summer after the player had a trial at the club, and admitted he had made a mistake in doing so.
[54] However, he made just two league starts in the first half of the 2017–18 season and rejected the chance to join Colchester United on loan in January after his preferred option of Lincoln City were rebuffed by chairman Ron Martin.
[55] He was instead restored to the first-team at Roots Hall by new manager Chris Powell, and scored a hat-trick in a 4–0 win over Milton Keynes Dons on 21 April to earn himself a place on the EFL team of the week.
[73] On 24 August 2020, Robinson rejoined Port Vale on a two-year deal, where he faced competition from Tom Pope, Mark Cullen and Devante Rodney for a place in the starting eleven.
[80] Caretaker manager Danny Pugh deregistered Robinson from the club's 22-man squad the following month in order to make room for new signing Kurtis Guthrie.
[81] He was re-registered at the end of the January transfer window and went on to earn praise for his work rate from new manager Darrell Clarke but was still transfer-listed in May 2021.
[85] Having secured his release from Port Vale, Robinson signed a one-year contract with League Two club Bradford City after manager Derek Adams needed cover for the injured Lee Angol.
[94][95] He started eight games and made six substitute appearances in the remainder of the 2022–23 season as Brackley reached the final of the play-offs, where they were beaten 2–0 by Kidderminster Harriers.
[97] In November 2012, the Jamaica Football Federation reported that Robinson had shown interest in playing for the Reggae Boyz and that he was in the pool of players eligible to be called up for the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
[100] In April 2020, Robinson launched a YouTube channel called The Ball Don't Lie, along with Colchester teammate Frank Nouble.
