I wonder how many games he played before he was 20?
None of this carp of resting players because they are young


I believe Robbie still holds the record for the youngest player to play in 100, 200 and 300 league games.

Hard to believe it's been twenty two years. The recently deceased Harry Gregg gave him his chance to step up from local youth football when Cardiff amongst others were sniffing around.

What did we do before academies eh?!


Played with and against him many times - always light years ahead of everyone, even a talented Swansea Schoolboys U-15 side.

Scouts were watching him as a 14 year old, I remember him going to first division club (Arsenal from memory) on trial and coming back because he was homesick.

Lovely fella too, always had time for us lesser mortals.

I think he was the youngest to reach 100 games (at that time)
