Their preparation for the one-off Champions League games was exemplary and I can't imagine their recruitment process is any less thorough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hickey is on the radar of Celtic, Bayern and Bologna these clubs have obviously seen something they think they can seriously develop. Andy Robertson was at Queen’s Park at Hickey’s age - pretty sure no one back then thought he would become Scotland captain and a Champions League winner. I wish Hickey well if he goes abroad to learn his trade and hopefully be a success (and Burkey will always be able to dine out on the memory of the absolute roasting he gave him that day) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red_dug Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hickey is a diddy. He'll go the same way as Hearts last young superstar, the boy Cochrane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpetfitter Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 I’m surprised at the interest in the lad from some really big clubs. I know he’s young but I have not seen anything yet that would suggest such a glittering trajectory. But clearly WTF do I know? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangodog Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 If the BBC gossip column is to be believed Celtic will get 30% of his transfer fee. Although given the standard of Scottish journalism they could have just swiped that off his Wiki page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonbon19 Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Let’s hope he becomes the player the Italians think he can be. It can only be good for Scottish hopes on the future . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
