The reserves coach at Southend United in 2000-01, Rob was only called upon when injury or suspension deprived the Blues of their first-choice centre-halves.
Whenever he was selected he showed himself to be as effective as ever and produced a particularly fine performance when partnering debutant Stephen Broad at champions Chesterfield, the pair helping the Blues to earn a 1-1 draw.
Rob was the Shrimpers manager from 9 October 2001 to 25 March 2003.
Whilst assistant manager at AFC Bournemouth, at the age of 43, Rob was registered as a player on a non-contract basis in September 2007 due to an injury crisis.
