Robert was given a one year contract in May 2008

Glenn Roeder said "?It's because I think he's not a bad player because technically he's gifted and I think with a full year's working with us and working in the gym with a specific strengthening programme - although I don't think he is going to grow much taller - I think we can make Robert stronger and that will help him. Left-footed footed players are quite rare and he has got a very nice left footy, quite cultured. He has earned the year with his attitude and his motivation to train and get another contract here and a couple of weeks ago his dream comes true.?

At the end of March 2009, Eagle has a trial with Stevenage ahead of a potential loan move but Stevenage opted not to pursue it.

        tho roeder does have a thing about sacking talent (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 6, 16:19:46
        
        good point (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Aug 6, 16:20:50
      - so you're saying roeder signed him from norwich? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 6, 16:16:12
        
        so you're saying he didn't? (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:17:12
        
        how can you sign a player when he already belongs to the club? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 6, 16:17:52
        
        this is too funny (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:18:11
        
        I'm not sure giving an academy player a contract is "quite" (NCFC) - duke of york, Aug 6, 16:24:23
        
        So if he hadn't have signed, it wouldn't have been the same as releasing him? (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:27:06
        
        Not even our board would have allowed Adeyami to be released (NCFC) - Brandonio, Aug 6, 16:28:46
        
        I see your Adeyemi (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Aug 6, 16:19:28

        Impressive. I'll see you're Paul McSmall (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Aug 6, 16:37:18
        
        Not really a signing of sorts. The lad went on to help Exeter get promotion (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:39:47
        
        Problem with this game is someone could say Lupoli (NCFC) - Brandonio, Aug 6, 16:43:24
        
        I'll remember that Roeder said he needed to bulk up and work hard (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:47:13
        
        bit of a poor signing then isn't it (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Aug 6, 16:48:10
        
        Hard to coach a player who isn't fulfilling their apparent potential (NCFC) - pants, Aug 6, 16:50:37

- Matty Patty left because he found an even better set of facilities. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 6, 16:07:53
  - It is absolutely incredible to me that a NORWICH player could big up the facilities of ANO (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 6, 16:48:34
  - did we receive a fee for Pattison then? (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 6, 16:12:13

  - Indeed. I guess he didn't feature as often until Roder cruelly and (NCFC) - Snakey, Aug 6, 16:08:38
    - Worthy made Crofty integral to that 4-5-1/4-3-3 he tried. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 6, 16:11:40
      - I guess. I wouldn't bracket Dublin and Croft though in terms of overall impact. (NCFC) - Snakey, Aug 6, 16:14:27
