Heres to you Andy Robertson

My mother, still in Hull, is 93. We have basically the same conversation, every Sunday, as we've been having for about the last 10 years ... but it sure beats the alternative. I wouldn't be shocked if she outlives me!

 

Well it seems no one else has sussed the reference...so it's up to me...

I'll add this track too, as we seem to have overcome a minor trouble...

 

Paul Simons haircut looks like something out of Star Trek!

The tune has often been sung to Robertson's name at matches since he signed for us. Same with Stuart Elliott back in the day.

 

Cheers, I didn't know that.

Don't worry, the deal is on ice.

Moi aussi. NOT!

 

From an interview in the YP.

Coming less than 24 hours after the window closed with Robertson still at the KCOM on Silva’s orders and seven new faces having arrived in January, there is genuine hope in the East Riding that Hull can win their fight to beat the drop.


“It was important for everyone, probably more so the manager than anyone else,” said Robertson, who at one stage had seemed set to join Robert Snodgrass and Jake Livermore in leaving City.
“For me as well, it is important that the talk and all the other stuff just goes away. That is the way you want it, you just want to focus on playing and obviously the last 48 hours (of the window) had seen a lot of talk.
“But I am glad I am here and I am glad I am working under this manager. I am glad he came out and showed his belief in me, which is always nice to hear. Long may it continue. I want to keep improving under him.”

“We are a team fighting for our lives,” said Robertson. “We need people that are going to come in here that are going to be hungry and maybe have got a point to prove.
“You have got that with the two loan signings from the Premier League (Lazar Markovic and Oumar Niasse) – they have got a point to prove, to come here and try to prove themselves. I thought Niasse put himself about against United and was a handful. Markovic could also have stolen the headlines at the end (when hitting the post) and I thought his work-rate was fantastic.
“All the boys coming from abroad want to prove themselves in the biggest league in the world. That is good for us.
“We don’t want people coming in here just thinking it will be an easy ride. The boys that we have seen so far clearly don’t think like that.”

Mourinho’s outburst after Wednesday’s stalemate may have been designed to deflect attention away from his side’s struggles but there was no denying how well Hull played. Robertson puts this improvement under Silva firmly down to the head coach.

“He came in and put his work on things straight away,” added the Scot. “He told us we would have no days off and he has not been wrong about that! But the boys are happy going in every day. We are learning a lot under him.”

 

Loads of stories in the press today he was furious he had the move pulled at the last minute as we couldn't get a replacement...

And will go on summer.

Wonder who planted those tales, today! Apparently the move was agreed but we pulled it not due to Marco, or Robbo, but the replacement not coming off.
And it is reported Robbo was none too pleased. If true, rather ****s on some of the above. If not true, wonder what prompted he headlines today?!

 

Probably his agent trying to make some money for themselves. Agents are a leech in football.

 

Strange timing. And if it was his agent it suggests he want exactly as loyal as we hoped, just annoyed.

 

I don't think any of this is Andy himself.

Agents often set out to make gains for themselves rather than their player.

 

Maybe Burnley trying to **** stir and disrupt usas they know were after them??

 

MS will be all over it already if thats the case and will have someone lined up for about half the money. Robertson was the first to Niasse yesterday to celebrate his goal and his commitment was total. The summers a long time coming..

 

The only thing I believe that's
In the papers is the ****ing date
At the top, and even then the usless
Bastards can get that wrong. The bastards have their own agendas..
They love to make up stories that just are not true... put 2 and 2 together and get 25... ****ers!!!

 

Another story was that Burnley had no real intention of buying Robbo; rather, they used the 'bid' to shake Norwich up, so that they sold Burnley one Robbie Brady, for £13m. Norwich had been stalling but, faced with no deal, moved - and Burnley dropped their Robbo bid.
