queensferryjambo Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Thoughts with Robbo and his family. As a measure of the man that is John Robertson, I went to a fundraiser evening organised by the parents of a girls football team in West Lothian. Robbo had volunteered to be one of the evenings speakers. He had a family bereavement prior to the event. He not only attended making sure he never let anyone down he finished his talk them drove straight from the event back up north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Section Q Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 ""The 56-year-old suffered a recent family bereavement and has been given as much time off as he needs, with the club willing to let him return whenever he feels ready. First-team coach Barry Wilson and goalkeeping coach Ryan Esson have been placed in temporary charge. Robertson’s assistant, Scott Kellacher, is currently absent through illness.""

Looks like they care for their staff. Its a good club. One of the few. Sad to hear this news. Love Robbo like family. If he'd scored all them goals and was a tool, we'd still like him, but fact is he's the nicest guy you could hope to meet. Very very proud to have him as our club icon.

Locky Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Good to hear Caley are looking after Robbo. Hope the wee man is okay.

Wish Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I've not read the article itself, but from the BBC Gossip pages the Sun are have a headline of 'Sad Robbo...' I'm sure it's not just a case of Robbo being 'sad'. For me, it does nothing to reduce the stigma of mental health issues. Anyway my thoughts are with Robbo and his family at the current time.

martoon Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Best wishes to John. Hate to think of him suffering. Speaks volumes for the type of man that he is that even Hibs supporters are fond of him and wish him well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glamorgan Jambo Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Very best wishes to Robbo. A wonderful guy on every level. I watched his interview with Aaron Fraser last week and it struck me how open and honest he is when he speaks. The same goes for his interview a month or so ago that got widely reported and led to the polling of championship clubs for a shut down (John saw right through that stunt as he describes in his interview with Aaron which I'd highly recommend). Because he's open and honest his interviews are so much more interesting than the usual media trained blandness that comes out from pretty much everyone involved with football these days.
