Nurse Stacey Sutherland, 42,\u00a0from Leven, Fife<\/a>, said: \u201cI have been a fan of Robbie since the nineties. He\u2019s ageing<\/a> like a fine wine, so he is.\u201d<\/p>\n

And her pal, nail technician Sarah Baker, 36, who is also from Leven, added: \u201cHe\u2019s just amazing. I\u2019ve loved him since he was in Take That. I\u2019ve always been team Robbie through and through.\u201d<\/p>\n
