Don’t know too much over here about the details of the situation, but wish him well.
He was quick to help us Hibbies out here in the past, and although he was a nightmare for us on the field, I wish him all the best off it.

At no point in my life as a Hibee have I grudged Robertson his record against us. Good guy and I hope he gets back in the ICT dugout soon.

Like many others remember his brave stance attending and speaking out at the Hands Off Hibs rally at the Usher Hall.
Hope he makes a good recovery. Pressure ratchets up even more so during Covid for many. Players and managers are no different the additional strain must be awful. To have been unable to attend a funeral due to a game may have been his decision but maybe that decision should have been taken from him - looks like they were in desperate circumstances that must have been some burden to carry.

In 1988 I was involved in a charity cricket match. Hearts and Hibs agreed to provide a player each, Tommy Mcintyre for us and Robbo for Hearts. In the meantime he had been transferred to Newcastle but he insisted in honouring his commitment.
Standing pre-match in a group with him, he was reading the programme and came across a message of support from Mercer; he pretended to spit on his picture, much to Tommy M’s amusement
After that I wasn’t surprised he supported us during the takeover
Best wishes to someone who has bridged the city divide, at least to a degree

Legend...my favourite Hearts player.
Caused me no end of grief when he played against us. Criminal he got less than 20 Scotland caps.
Hope he recovers well.

Even if he hadn't supported the Hands off Hibs campaign, he come from a time before Hearts started all this 'wee team, big team' bloody nonsense, a time when you didn't get Hearts players and managers stoking up that crap, a time when you could respect an opposition player even if he did break your bloody heart one or two times a season, you could still grudgingly admit how good he was. That's what Robbo was back in the day.
All the very best to him and his family, I hope he can get through this, I've been there myself and I know how bloody tough it is. Good luck Robbo.

If Hibs fans could have a favourite jambo mines would be Wee Robbie, although I hated him playing against us.

Poor guy, hope him and the family get through it sooner rather than later.
Also nice to see I am far from the only one that has always had plenty of time for Wee Robbo. Says a lot for his personality given the amount of hurt he caused us!!!

All the best, to the man who destroyed us in so many games, wishing all the best to Robbo and his family.
But for the price of a pair of fitba boots and Turnbulls foul mouth this Hibee could have played for the team he originally supported.
Great guy for a jambo.

I see he’s stepped down from his position of Manager, and takes over as sporting director
Glad he’s in better health

I like him. Shared a wee bit of banter at the 5-2 Caley game last year. I wish him all the best.

Met him in the Libby Inn said he had scored 23 against us and there was more to come
He was right
Get back and get well soon Robbo
