It was 4000, I doubt it could be much lower. And that isnāt of interest to the Scottish FA or Robertson or his coach.
People bang on about rotation this season and yet in games that donāt matter too many wish to make excuses.
Itās pointless.

The thing isā¦
Robbo is unlikely to have a gruelling season ahead of himā¦ and when he moves onto pastures new, it will probably be back home in Scotlandā¦ In being a Scot, the national team will mean a great deal to himā¦ He will want to play for them until one of his legs falls off

Robboās been speaking to Sky Sports about his future during his charity event, the AR26 annual Captainās Cup Golf Day fundraiser.
We have discussed. Weāve had good discussions, me and the club. But what the future holds Iām not sure
All I know is [on Friday] I fly off on holiday and itās well needed, I need a rest after a long season. And then I look forward to pre-season. Thatās all my focus is.
I canāt look too far ahead, I never have done and Iām not going to start now. I know the position Iām in, Iāve only got a year left and a lot is getting said but my pure focus is focusing on being a dad for the next couple of weeks and enjoying that time with the kids and then try to come back in the best shape possible for pre-season and see what the future holds when the decisions come.
Asked about the potential arrival of Kerkez and having to fight for his position, Robertson said:
At any big club you always have to keep moving. The club always moves forward. Youāve seen other big clubs like Man City be very active early doors in the window.
I know weāve only got [Jeremie] Frimpong in the door so far but it looks like one or two are going to be close by what we can see on Sky Sports News.
Just now weāre at the top, we won the league and itās important the club try to keep improving and finding ways to do that. Theyāve identified positions where they want to get new blood in, the players weāre linked with are all younger players and exciting players as well.
When you play for a big club like Liverpool you expect challenges, you expect to have competition, Iāve always faced that and so has everyone in their own positions. We want the club to be ambitious, theyāre doing that and wherever we fit into that, if youāre happy with the role you stay and do it and if youāre not then Iām sure there will be some people out the door as well. Thatās the nature of football.
Assuming Kostas is sold, Iād expect Robbo to be offered a new contract, but it might not been until well into the next season. Not concerned though, canāt see him agitating to move, but can see him ending up at Celtic before his time is up. Certainly donāt see the club trying to garner a fee out of him (through offering him a longer deal to sell).
