Today, after 23 wonderful years, I am formally announcing my retirement as a professional footballer. Leaving home aged 15 to pursue my professional career in England seems a lifetime ago. I was a street footballer full of hope & armed with huge ambitions. All I needed was that one chance. I would like to pay special thanks to Wolverhampton Wanderers for believing in me & giving me that chance when I made my professional debut in 1997 against Norwich City. I will never forget that day, I was fortunate enough to score both goals in a 2-0 win. From Wolves I embraced new challenges at Coventry City, Inter Milan, Leeds United & then possibly the most successful period of my club football career with Tottenham Hotspur, a club that will always hold a special place in my heart. I then enjoyed time at Celtic, Liverpool, West Ham United, & LA Galaxy. My playing career concluded with an exciting few months with ATK, a club which gave me my first experience of management. Playing & captaining my country has been the highlight of my career. I enjoyed every moment with Ireland over an 18-year period. Words cannot express how proud I am to be Irish. It was so important for me to have a good connection with the fans of the teams I played with. Your support was vital to me, thank you. Thank you to the teammates, managers & staff I have worked with; I was honoured to learn from you all. Thanks to my parents Anne & my late father Robbie Snr, my brother & sisters for their support. To my wife Claudine & my sons Robert and Hudson - thank you for your love, support & encouragement. I am so incredibly grateful for all you have done for me. I take great pride in having scored 325 goals in 737 club appearances & 68 goals in 146 international appearances for the Republic of Ireland. But for me, it was about making my family proud & the friendships that this wonderful game has given me. With the closing of one chapter comes an exciting new adventure. I am honoured & excited to be working alongside Mick McCarthy, Terry Connor and the Irish international team & I hope to use my experiences to contribute towards a bright future in Irish football. Thank you for the memories!

1980年出生嘅羅比堅尼，6歲就開始進入足球學校，直到1996年就加入狼隊嘅青訓。短短1年嘅訓練，羅比堅尼就正式成為職業球員為狼隊喺當年嘅英甲(現時英冠)上陣。雖然好年輕，但羅比堅尼已經展現出自己出色嘅入球能力，效力兩個球季上陣84場攻入27球。

1999-2000年球季，羅比堅尼離開狼隊，展開自己數年嘅浪人生涯，佢先後效力高雲地利、國際米蘭及列斯聯，雖然仍然有入球，但係表現並不穩定。直到2002-03球季，因為列斯聯陷入財困，最終被迫以700萬鎊將羅比堅尼賣至熱刺。

加盟熱刺令羅比堅尼終於搵到自己嘅家，佢喺球隊越踢越好，入球數字不斷攀升，並喺2007-08球季達到自己喺球會嘅巔峰，個人全季攻入23球，協助熱刺奪得聯賽盃冠軍。

由於表現出色，羅比堅尼被利物浦相中，最終以1900萬鎊(外加130鎊浮動條款)轉會費到晏菲路球場踢波。加盟利物浦可以話為羅比堅尼完夢，因為佢自幼就係利物浦嘅球迷，但好可惜佢未能延續自己喺熱刺嘅佳態，最終領隊賓尼迪斯對佢失去信任。

短短效力半個球季，利物浦就決定將羅比堅尼賣晒比熱刺，並且只係需要1200萬鎊，亦即係話利物浦短短半年就因為羅比堅尼蝕左700萬鎊。

可惜嘅係，重投熱刺嘅羅比堅尼表現大不如前，入球數大幅下跌，因此球隊選擇將佢外借，其中包括外借至些路迪及韋斯咸。2011年，羅比堅尼決定轉戰美職聯加入洛杉磯銀河，並與碧咸成為隊友。

效力銀河大慨5個球季，羅比堅尼再次搵番射門鞋，表現非常不俗，並協助球隊3次奪得美職聯盃。5個球季下來，羅比堅尼一共為銀河上陣左165攻入104球，效率可以話相當高。

愛爾蘭國家隊方面，羅比堅尼早喺2016年已經結束國家隊生涯，而佢19年國家隊生涯一共上陣146場攻入68球，呢兩個數字都係排名愛爾蘭國家隊歷史第一的。
