In June 2012 The Belfast Telegraph newspaper reported that three Northern Ireland players including Robson had been selected in the 18-player Great Britain squad for the 2012 London Olympics.[4] But Robson quickly denied the report: "I haven't received anything about being in final squad... Wish it was true but unfortunately not."[5] When the final squad was named, no Northern Irish or Welsh players were included.[6]
On 13 January 2016, it was announced she was leaving Sunderland after five years serving the club and signing with Durham.[7]
She won her 100th cap in a 1-0 win over Albania in the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Nations League on 26 September 2023; Robson was substituted at half-time, and passed the armband to Lauren Wade, who was making her 50th appearance for the national side.[8]
