Buy DB Publishing "Robbo" - Unsung Hero: The Autobiography of Paul Robinson by Dixon, Keith online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Brilliant read about a genuine sportsman, leader and family man. Whether you support Watford, West Brom, Bolton or Birmingham or just a football fan, this book gives a good insight into Paul Robinson the man. Review: What a dreadful book. Semi-literate, confused, inaccurate. When he gets his manager wrong on page 17, you wonder about the accuracy of everything in here. Then, near the end, he describes his full England match, when he was an unused substitute in Turkey, you really do wonder. Paul Robinson never got near the full England side, but this book goes as far as listing the line-ups and match details. Do you remember sitting on the bench in Turkey, Paul? No? That's because the Paul Robinson concerned is the goalkeeper! The book claims to be by "Paul Robinson with Keith Dixon." Well, was it? Who checked this particular 'fact?' I've read some pretty dreadful football books in my time, but this is probably the worst. The text drifts from first person narrative to what is presumably comments by Dixon, to other people's match reports, with any demarcation between them. Gives self-publishing (there's no trace of any editing from DB Publihing to be seen) a bad name.
