Representatives by Wasserman, who are based in Orpington i believeRufus is a dogs name said:Can't see anything from Apter's history that suggests he would have played with and therefore known Docherty before...? (there is the Scottish connection as they both played for the Scotland U21s, but at completely different times).
But Apter/Doc follow each other on Instagram... Of course, footballers know footballers, there is every chance they may have known each other previously and it's not possible to see exactly when someone started following someone else. But, according to AI 'while Instagram doesn't display exact dates, the most recent followers are often listed near the top'.
Apter has 6,800 followers and Doc is 18th on the list when I open it, which suggests it's a fairly recent connection...

Looks like he will fail the Charlton height test! Blackpool fans refer to him as Little Rob Apter.0

Literally two roads down the road from me, they bought out CSM who were originally in Footscray and then moved to Orpington1 -

Asked chatgpt what kind of player Rob Apter is:
Rob Apter is a young, direct winger/midfielder known for his pace, dribbling, and impact in the final third. Here’s a deeper look at his playing profile:
⚡ Player Profile
-
Position & Physical Profile
Primarily plays on the right wing (or right midfield), though he's versatile enough to operate as an advanced midfielder or even a right wing-back if needed avftt.co.uk+14Wikipedia+14southlondonsportcharltonathleticedition.com+14FIFACM. He stands around 1.75 m (5'9"), left-footed, explosive in short bursts . -
Technical Attributes
Rob excels in 1v1 situations, regularly taking on fullbacks with confidence FIFACM+3Blackpool Gazette+3Instagram+3. His left foot boasts strong dribbling, crossing, and finishing, and he’s not afraid to attempt tricks or rapid plays .
🏃♂️ Strengths on the Pitch
Trait Description Dribbling & Creativity Known as "one of those that can go past people and make something happen." He brings flair and unpredictability Blackpool Gazette+1Blackpool Gazette+1. Goal Threat Scored 8 goals in 45 League One games for Blackpool and hit 12 with Tranmere in League Two. He also achieved a hat-trick in April 2025 . Work Rate & Aggression Helps defensively, showing diligence off the ball and strong pressing high up the pitch . Loan Resilience & Football IQ Rated highly by loan managers for his willingness to learn, adapt, and physically compete—even in rough systems . ❌ Areas to Watch
-
Although explosive, his physicality and strength are modest—he’s not a power winger, so he sometimes relies more on agility than bulk Instagram.
-
Like many creative types, his consistency can dip—there have been matches where he’s a spectator rather than an instigator Blackpool Gazette.
🎬 Tactical Fit & Development
-
Best-suited to high-tempo, attacking football, especially teams that favour wing play and aggressive pressing.
-
Thrives with freedom to roam outside and inside the box—telltale from his performances both on loan and back at Blackpool Blackpool Gazette+2Blackpool Gazette+2Wikipedia+2.
-
High potential — still young (22), with room to refine his end product, decision-making under pressure, and physical resilience Eurosport+3FIFACM+3southlondonsportcharltonathleticedition.com+3.
✅ Bottom Line
Rob Apter is a dynamic, left-footed winger who excels at launching past defenders, crafting chances, and scoring—especially in searing transitions. His pace, flair, and eye for goal make him a natural match in attacking systems that prioritise wide play and counter attacks. While his strength and consistency could use honing, his ceiling is high: a potential Championship-level threat—or even higher with development.

There is a star man running down the right
His name is Robby Apter and he’s f*cking dynamite 🎶

Don't think we should start slagging off Blackpool fans as a whole over the odd comment.
They're a fairly grounded bunch and alright whenever I've been there. Genuinely one of my favourite away days, just a shame the weather always seems to be shite.16 -

This, we reacted the same way with Small, it’s just the way fans are. If a player leaves for a club that’s not big enough in their estimation then it means “he was not all that”. We did it with Small, Lockyer etc and Blackpool fans are doing it with Apter and I’ve seen Luton fans doing the sameBraziliance said:Don't think we should start slagging off Blackpool fans as a whole over the odd comment.

I hope he's got an aptitude for football.1

Someone was saying Apter hasn't got great pace. He looks rapid enough to me and, importantly, he seems able to run fast with the ball at close control at his feet. That is rare, and a great quality to have.Scoham said:https://x.com/cafc73828/status/1945038569514365073?s=46&t=A-w3Eq0EWWpjMxring904QSome nice goals in there. Obviously his best bits and it doesn’t show the missed chances, but what sticks out for me is the composure he shows. A lot of calmly taken well placed finishes in there, looks to have a lot of potential as a goalscoring winger.2 -
It was obvious from the few times I saw him last season that he was/is a top prospect. This is a transfer that drops my jaw if it comes off.1

Rich Cawley’s had a few fans ask if there’s any truth in the DKD rumour and not said anything. He’s denied truth in plenty of rumours in the past 👀24
