Carl Robinson
| Date of birth | 13 October 1976 |
| Place of birth | Llandrindod Wells |
| Nationality | Welsh |
| Weight | 81 kg |
| Height | 1.78 m |
| Position | Midfielder |
Robinson was in and out of the Wolverhampton Wanderers team in the first half of 2000-01 and although he netted several goals with some well-timed runs into the box, it was only in the New Year that he really began to blossom.
He was particularly effective in the Black Country 'derby' against West Bromwich Albion and retained his place in the starting line-up until just before the end of the campaign.
A right-sided midfield player, he is a good ball winner and has the capacity to deliver a defence-splitting pass.
He continued to represent Wales in 2000-01 by winning two more caps.
After a loan spell, Robinson joined Norwich City in January 2006 with a contract to June 2008.
