Colchester United Re-Sign Theo Robinson<\/h2>\n

Guess Who’s Back?<\/h3>\n

Colchester announced via their website they had re-signed the striker. Robinson initially returned to Southend last week but after talks with his parent club, he has returned to Colchester.<\/p>\n

The striker has scored seven goals for Colchester this season including six in the league.<\/p>\n

What Was Said<\/h3>\n

Speaking to the Colchester website after completing his return, Robinson said<\/a>: \u201cI’m glad it’s all sorted out and I can get on with playing football.<\/p>\n

“I was playing plenty of football and I think I was doing ok for the club, and I always knew what I wanted to do when this time came.<\/p>\n

“I had to go back though, and nothing is ever guaranteed, so I’m grateful that the deal got done and I’m here now for the rest of the season.”<\/p>\n

Colchester manager John McGreal is delighted to have Robinson back. He told the club\u2019s website<\/a>: \u201cI’m delighted that he’s with us now for the rest of the season.\u201d<\/p>\n

“We know what he can do, seven goals in 11 starts proves that, and he’s a really good attacking option for us.<\/p>\n

“He’s a different player to the likes of Frank Nouble and Luke Norris, and it’s always advantageous to have different threats in the squad.”<\/p>\n

Robinson Aiming to Fire Colchester to Promotion<\/h3>\n

Robinson has been an excellent addition to the Colchester squad. He is determined to see their season finish with promotion.<\/p>\n

The U\u2019s are in a good place, but they draw far too many games. They need to find their killer instinct in the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n

Robinson will be hoping he can continue his decent scoring record and push Colchester towards League One.<\/p>\n
