Robert David Slater (born 22 November 1964) is an Australian former professional soccer player and sports commentator.
He played as a midfielder from 1982 until 2001 notably in the Premier League for Blackburn Rovers where he was amongst the title winning side of 1995.
He also played in England's top flight for West Ham United and Southampton, as well as playing in the Football League for Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Slater also played in Europe for Anderlecht and RC Lens as well as playing in Australia for St George Saints, Sydney United and Northern Spirit FC.
He made 44 caps for Australia, scoring one goal.
Slater was born in Ormskirk, Lancashire, England, and migrated to Australia with his family where he started his playing career.
Slater played with various clubs in his youth before joining St George Saints in the National Soccer League in 1982.
He won the NSL with St George in 1983, and following this season he trialled with Nottingham Forest; however St George and Nottingham Forest were unable to agree terms and he returned to Australia.
He then moved to Sydney Croatia in 1987 before an aborted move to Hajduk Split was quickly followed by a transfer to Anderlecht.
Slater did not see much playing time in Belgium and moved to then Ligue 2 club Lens, which was promoted during his time at the club (1990–94).
While he was at Lens he was attacked with a baseball bat by Paris Saint-Germain supporters and nearly lost his life.
At the end of the 1993–94 season Slater moved to Blackburn Rovers, and there he became the first Australian to win the English FA Premier League in the 1994-95 season, starting many of the games in the first half of the season and contributing numerous assists.
He was not a regular player in the second half of the season, but his 18 league appearances (six as a substitute) were more than enough to qualify for a title medal.
In August 1995, he was sold to West Ham United for £600,000 with Matty Holmes moving in the opposite direction.
He made his debut on 26 August 1995 in a 1–1 draw away at Nottingham Forest with his first West Ham goal coming on 2 December 1995 in a 4–2 away defeat to his previous club, Blackburn Rovers.
Slater made 29 appearances in all competitions, scoring two goals for West Ham before moving on to Southampton in August 1996.
After just one season in East London, Slater was signed for Southampton by manager Graeme Souness for a fee of £250,000 and was a regular throughout the 1996–97 season, making 30 Premier League appearances as the "Saints" avoided relegation by one point with a run of three victories in the final five games.
These included a 2–0 victory over Slater's former club, Blackburn Rovers, in the penultimate game on 3 May 1997 in which Slater scored the opening goal, forcing the ball home from eight yards after a good run by Egil Østenstad.
In the FA Cup match at Reading on 4 January 1997, Slater was sent off by referee Graham Poll in the final minute of the match following a "gesture" to a linesman, as Southampton went down 3–1, finishing the match with only nine players.
In the summer of 1997, Souness left The Dell club, to be replaced by Dave Jones.
At the end of the 1997–98 season he moved back to Australia to captain a new team in the National Soccer League, the Northern Spirit.
His final appearance for Australia was against Saudi Arabia in the 1997 Confederations Cup.
