For a start Robertson had to make his way there via Hull and it was clear he was an exceptional talent. And where’s Robertson off to in the next 3 years? Unlikely to leave Liverpool in that time IMO. He’s absolutely quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway i thought it was Celtic we told to bolt? Born apparently, if he had to go I would rather it was down there. They obviously see enough in him with better coaching they can develop him further. As much as it pains me to say it the move for Tierney and the form of Robertson will see more scouts looking up here for players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think teams owning half of players is allowed anymore. They own him, we have applied for a work permit and the SPFL panel will decide if he is allowed one because he is an exceptional talent. He wouldn’t get one currently in England as he isn’t exceptional in their league. They would loan him out to a club in Europe where it’s easier to get a work permit.

Like most clubs City and especially Chelsea but players and loan them out for cash, sell jerseys and move them on for more money. All the big clubs are stockpiling players, the question is could we get them if they didn’t? If we were doing it UEFA would put a limit in loans out of a club as they do with loans into a club.

baxterd1974 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Spion Kop (or Kop for short) is a colloquial name or term for a number of single tier terraces and stands at sports stadiums, particularly in the United Kingdom. Their steep nature resembles a hill near Ladysmith, South Africa, that was the scene of the Battle of Spion Kop in January 1900 during the Second Boer War.
