Ibrox Noise had to laugh recently at a report regarding exiting Liverpool legend Andy Robertson.
The left back, well into his 30s now, is calling time on his Liverpool career, with the Anfield giant on a painful downwards trajectory following that sensational first season under Slot.
Robertson is slated for a move to Spurs, with the cash-rich but relegation threatened London giant keen on taking a player of his calibre on.
Celtic have also been linked in a surprise package given silly season.
However, the big laugh came at the fiction from Football Insider. They had the comedy to throw Rangers’ name into the mix.
Let’s be clear – there is more chance of Donald Trump declaring peace on earth and being nice to everyone than Andy Robertson joining Rangers.
Because, as anyone in football knows, Robertson is a die-hard Celtic fan. His one career regret is not playing for the Parkhead side.
For Football Insider to throw our name as somewhere he’s potentially going to go? Shows just what they will say for clicks and attention.
They clearly haven’t a clue about football, make stuff up all over the place, and that they’d not know Robertson is a raging tim gives a lot of insight to the sourcing of their info.
They make it up.
Robertson is a top player, and we’d be fools not to want him, of course, but there’s 1% chance of him coming to the Premiership even to Celtic while he’s still fairly competent.
Rangers? Less than 0%.
Besides, we, for now, have the best LB in the country by a mile in Tuur Rommens. He’s shone like a beacon. Alas we don’t have good backup in the case of injury. But Robertson isn’t interested in being backup.
Tl;dr: Robertson isn’t joining Rangers. We feel if you’re gonna make something up, guys, at least do your research and make it believable.
