It’s not really is it - it’s just full of bitterness , there is a reason why Doon leapt on it

Scottish football both club and country for whatever reason is not pulling up trees , players like McGinn went for small fees because they move from a league which isn’t great and it’s a big step up even going into the Championship. Robbo was superb for us but he wasn’t “outstanding” for Hull - he has developed at Liverpool.

What did Liverpool pay for Robertson?

About £8mil and be excellent for us once he got his break into the town.

Well considering Tierney couldn't lace Robertson's boots I agree £25 million is nonsense for him. However English football is awash with crazy money and if Arsenal are stupid enough to pay that then you really can't blame Celtic for wanting all they can get.

Nope, it isn't, this is the reason we get robbed of fees, blind arrogance. As McLean & McGinn have shown this last year, fairly average Scottish players become stars in the second tier in England, because it's a step down.

McGinn is “fairly average” ? Heard a lot of talk that he should have gone straight to the Prem because he was that good in Scotland.

No idea who McLean is

But yep I believe it’s a step up from the Scottish Prem into the championship - maybe not a big step as I initially stated
