Blue 250 Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Good luck to Neil and his quest ! I can remember him when he started for Everton, it always was and is good when a youth player breaks through into the first team, pretty sure he scored the day 'Big Bob' got his 30th against Chelsea. Also pretty sure Bob Latchford was a meat eater! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Robinson has the unique accolade of being the player that was born nearest to the Goodison Park ground of all those who have ever played for Everton. Add to that, the first recognized vegetarian of British soccer, he appeared at an event in London last month for vegetable appreciation. I fully endorse what Robinson stands for, and his stance on 'no meat' products. I also don't like the idea of animals being killed for their meat, am in fact strongly against it, and have considered the vegetarian route on more than one occasion. It's easier said than done however, as it's all about the taste and flavor of it all, and turning to a salad diet seems a bit mundane when you think about it, but it's something I wish I could have undertaken. Robinson also opened his own fitness center and keeps in shape, along with his improved diet, and is a dedicated individual, and along with his 'no killing of animals' ethics, you got someone there you can really look up to, and can't seem to give him enough praise for what he has done, and will continue to do.

Dalziel Kane Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Spellow Lane, Walton, Liverpool. About as close to Goodison Park as many will find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
