About Jake Robinson

Jake David Robinson is an English former footballer who last played for Southern Combination Premier Division club Newhaven. Robinson played either as a winger or striker. On 28 October 2006, Robinson scored his first hat-trick for Brighton in a League One game against Huddersfield Town, the first hat-trick by a Brighton player in nearly five years. After finding first-team opportunities difficult at Brighton, Robinson re-joined Aldershot Town on loan for a second loan spell until the end of the season during February 2009. Once again Robinson proved to be a valuable asset to Torquay as they won the first leg 2–0 and drew the second leg 0–0, meaning Torquay were through and Shrewsbury were out. He made his debut for the club the day later against Hereford United, scoring within the first 10 minutes of the match.
