    Robbie is respected by most soccer fans worldwide. Need we say more.
  • You feel this mans emotion...These Brothers of the 70s - children of the Windrush generation, had so many doors closed in their face but kept strong! Brilliant work! Brilliant interview! Thanks
  • @drsportsmedia
    Thank you for hosting the Don Calum 💪🏾. Great interview
  • @lledrocvinn8883
    Robbie is such an inspiration. As a black man in the UK to do what he’s done. He’s a brilliant role model for all on how to conduct yourself in business, hardship and even joy! Big up Robbie always
  • @E2JMusic
    Without Robbie… there’s no successful fan channels. Yes AFTV reached new heights during the banter era, but it opened the door for multiple people to make a living and evolve. It also gave the fans a voice and it still does today. People only dislike it because it doesn’t benefit them themselves. Much respect it Robbie.
  • @marcusdeans1150
    Just watched the Robbie Vs Simon Jordan debate 4 years ago. They really went for him and Robbie gave a a great account of himself. Ironically Robbie now has more subscribers than Talksport!😂
  • @ClamBuster4
    staunch utd fan here... there's a reason we all call him 'don' robbie. proper respect of the highest order. props my man
  • @user-jl3hj5rc4x
    Never ceases to amaze me the jealousy and spite when someone works hard, sacrifices, and succeeds. Big up Robbie. An inspiration.
  • @striker5458
    Robbie is a lowkey great entrepreneur. Not sure how many Americans know him, but he sets the standard for fan tvs. No one touches this channel in other countries imo
  • @adriangonda4161
    Proud that Robbies dad taught him about Africa. I have met a lot of people from Jamaica and America who hate the association with Africa
  • @otuefiom5730
    Robbie is a big inspiration to every Blackman in the UK.
  • @mylom8397
    Don Robbie made a whole new aspect to sports media, cut the legacy media out completely, and they hated him for it. Robbie's success is entirely of his own making, and he deserves every penny he makes.
  • @Kabaselefh
    Don Robbie is loved throughout the world by Arsenal fans, he is a humble and down to earth man. Love from Canada 🇨🇦 Robbie ✊🏿👏🏿
  • @cianpapazian
    I live in cork, Ireland. Rarely get over to games over ticket limitations. But Robbie and all at aftv keep us international fans feeling involved and feeling like we are close to the each game. Respect man 💪🏽💪🏻💪🏿
  • @TheHidden0123
    Seems like a top bloke tbh, it's fun to hate on Arsenal as a Spurs fan, but always respected Robbie!
