Club career

After coming through the Southampton Second Chance Programme and Brighton & Hove Albion's academy, Robinson's career started with Peacehaven & Telscombe, followed by brief spells at Lewes and Bognor Regis Town before a serious knee injury restricted his appearances at Haywards Heath Town. [4]

Robinson joined Staines Town for the 2020–2021 season. He scored a hat-trick in a 4–4 draw with South Park on 17 October 2020 [5] and was named Supporters' Player of the Season.

Robinson made his international debut for Bermuda against Surinam on 4 June 2021 in a World Cup qualifier, [3] and started again against Cayman Islands four days later. [6] He has also appeared in the Gold Cup. [7]

Robinson joined Horsham on 30 July 2021 after impressing in pre-season. [8] Robinson then re-signed for Haywards Heath Town, before moving to Worthing in December 2021 [9] and then signing joint registration forms with Bognor Regis Town on 15 August 2022. [10]

On 17 December 2022 Robinson ended his joint registration with Bognor Regis Town and joined Whitehawk, [11] scoring on his debut at Three Bridges, [12] followed by a stoppage time winner against Haywards Heath Town. [13] Robinson signed permanently for Whitehawk in June 2023, [14] but left shortly afterwards to sign a professional contract with Glacis United in Gibraltar.

In June 2024, Robinson was announced to have returned to Whitehawk, [15] before joining Chatham Town the following week. [16] Having failed to make an appearance, he joined Lancing in August 2024 and became the second international player to earn a cap whilst at the club after Knorry Scott, before returning to Whitehawk in October 2024. [17]

Robinson suffered a serious knee injury while playing for Whitehawk against Carshalton Athletic in January 2025. [18] He was subsequently diagnosed with a cruciate ligament injury to the same knee he injured in 2019, running in the Brighton marathon in April 2025, as part of his preparation for surgery. [19]
