Robinson joined Bristol from Plymouth Albion in the summer of 2005 and capped his debut in the Guinness Premiership by scoring a try against his former academy team Bath on the opening weekend of the 2005/06 season.
Robinson signed a new two-year contract with Bristol during the 2006/07 season. He went on to represent the Barbarians in 2006 and 2007.
Robinson missed a number of games in October and November 2009 with a broken nose sustained in a training session in October.
Robinson signed another two-year contract extension with Bristol in March 2009. However, he signed for Leicester Tigers in June 2010, following Bristol's loss to Exeter in the Championship final.[2] After being allowed to leave Leicester Tigers he joined London Wasps on a short-term deal[3] despite initially reaching a verbal agreement with Rotherham Titans to join them instead.[4]
After retiring from rugby Robinson was working as a removal man in the Leicestershire area.[5] Robinson founded Robinson’s Removals in Rothley, Leicester[6] but in April 2017 the company was wound up due to insolvency.[7][8]
