About Robbie Fowler

  • Robert Bernard Fowler (born 9 April 1975) is an English former professional footballer and manager who played as a striker from 1993 to 2012.
  • Fowler was known for being a natural scorer with an instinctive goal-poaching ability.

  • He scored 183 goals in total for Liverpool, 128 of which were scored in the Premier League (162 Premier League goals in total).
  • He earned the nickname "God" from the Anfield crowd, becoming a club legend due to his ruthlessness in front of goal.
  • He subsequently played for Leeds United and Manchester City, before returning to Liverpool in January 2006. He moved clubs 18 months later to sign for Cardiff City.
  • He refused a one-year "pay as you play" contract extension and signed with Blackburn Rovers on a three-month deal on the same terms instead.
  • In December 2008, he departed Blackburn and forged a career in Australia with North Queensland Fury and Perth Glory.
  • In 2011, he joined Thai side Muangthong United as a player, but later was appointed player-manager which he remained until his retirement in 2012. He was capped for England 26 times, scoring 7 goals.
  • Fowler was included in England's squads for Euro 1996, Euro 2000 and the 2002 World Cup.
  • Socially aware, Fowler showed support for the Liverpool dockers' strike during a goal celebration in 1997 where he unveiled a t-shirt which incorporated the Calvin Klein "CK" into the word doCKer.
