Having previously been something of a fringe player for Cardiff City, Robert firmly established himself in the team in 2000-01 and finished as the club's leading scorer with a total of 25 goals.
He netted a hat-trick in the FA Cup tie against Bristol Rovers and another in the Third Division game with Torquay United during a particularly hot phase when he scored ten goals in a run of seven games.
A quick and exciting striker, he celebrates every goal with an elaborate routine featuring a somersault.
Robert won three more caps for Wales at Under-21 level, was voted the Bluebirds' 'Young Player of the Year' for the third time in a row and was also selected for the PFA's Third Division team.
Robert joined West Bromwich Albion in August 2004 with a three-year contract.
He joined Norwich City in January 2006 with a contract to June 2009.
Robert joined Derby County in June 2007 with a three-year contract.
He joined Nottingham Forest in May 2007 with a three-year contract.
Robert re-joined Cardiff City in July 2011 with a two-year contract.
He joined Blackpool in March 2014 with a contract to June 2014.
