Former Liverpool and Republic of Ireland striker Michael Robinson has died at the age of 61.

“It leaves us with a great emptiness, but also countless memories, filled with the same love that you have shown for him.
“We will be eternally grateful to you for making this man SO HAPPY, he never walked alone. Thank you.”
