Savage Signs

[S15]

Hahaha what a muppet

Would say the same about the poster of that comment!

Sav is the bigger man by admitting he was wrong to rush a decision like that! Somehow i think tosh won't have him back straight away!

Is there any scenario where you don't automatically try to convince yourself and everyone else that the Rovers side of things isn't the correct side?

I can imagine your one of those types who tries to convince everyone that England will win every major competition before they start, then have some kind of conspiricy theory when they get knocked out.

You probably love Oasis too.

The rovers side is the best side to be on!

Far from it, i have the feeling that england will slip up in every must win game. Portugal, Brazil, etc. But i do think that england will make it to the european championships and world cup and expect they should make it out of the group.

As greece and liverpool have proved any team can win a competition they are in!

and british sea power!

I do not agree that Savage is a waste of money. In a recent interview with the LET he was refreshingly honest about his time at Ewood thus far stating that he hasn't shown anything like his best form due to injury. He said that whilst obviously no Gerrard, Keane or Viera, he believes he is the best player of his type in the Premiership and compares favourably with anyone else. I expect him to show that next season.

Must say Savage is getting a lot of stick for one injury hit half season compared with the likes of Emerton and Neill who have been pretty abysmal for most of the last two campaigns.

I will be happy to he can manage to stay on the pitch for long enough to show us what he is capable of.

He is (obviously) as much use as a chocolate tea-pot if he spends half his time sat in the stands suspended. Before anyone starts quoting how many times he has actually been sent off - he's been very lucky he has not been sent off more often than he has, imo.

....is a bit of a crap song, and I love BSP (see my signature). In fact, the second album is a bit of a stinker.

Better do something on topic too...£3 million is a waste, half that and we'd have a good signing. We're not a club who should be spending that kind of money on a player we'll see no return on unless he's several levels above the rest...and Sav isn't that, hence why his career has extended to the dizzy heights of Leicester and Birmingham.

Once the legs go he'll be useless, he doesn't have the brain to compensate.

Looking at your audioscrobbler is the only reason i know they even exist! Thank you for bringing them into my playlist truly awesome music! May take a look at some of your other bands i haven't heard of

Think your being harsh on sav £3mil is a bit over the top but i guess its the price you pay for taking a "big" clubs best player! Sav rates himself as the best at what he does, which i spose is fair seeing as there is no player like quite like him!

Not my favourite player in his pre-rovers days but there was always an underlying respect for what he does! I just hope he can be as influential for us as he was for brumington and leicester.

I think it`s already been mentioned, but Robbie was on the bizarrely titled Footballers Cribs last night on MTV(about ten times in fact). A couple of observations.

Firstly, if he was in my circle of friends, I would probably think he`s a tw@t.

Secondly, he lives in Cheshire according to the programme, very close to North Wales, thus bashing the `nearer to Mum and Dad` line used in the drawn out transfer saga.

Thirdly, his little boy, erm, Charlie, was asleep in his erm, Crib. But in his room was a tiny little Rovers shirt, and on the back was the number 31 abovewhich was the name `DADDY`. At which point I forgave him of all his taste/personalilty crimes.

Good on yer Robbie.

[John]

Just wait until he gets playing and is finally FIT, everyone will suddenly adore the floppy haired one...

[roversmum]

Probably got the idea from Brad, whose delightful little daughter has "Daddy 1" on her shirt.

Robbie didn't live in Cheshire when he played for Birmingham but I understand he has also since moved from the house that was filmed.

I totally agree, John. A fully-fit Sav will be a very handy weapon for us. He can tackle, chase and pass well, and gives us another option from set pieces (especially as MGP is very good in the air and so could be useful in the box).

Roversmum, why have you put 'her' in bold?

[Presty On Tour]

i lilly play for wales on many occassions!!

best player on the park by a mile!!

wen he's fit, he is good, my bet for fans player of the season 2005/06

Was writing as I would have said it, kind of emphasising that she did it first...............

I agree.

We haven't seen the best of Savage yet.

Never got a decent run of games together because of his groin. With a good pre-season under his belt, he will be good for us.

[waggy]

we need robert 'lily'savage to start showing why sparky paid 3 million for him

[92er]

I didn't want to sign Savage, I think we paid too much but now we have him I wonder if part of the problem he is trying too hard and that another part of the problem is he is not fully fit.

[skiporovers]

i agree that he is trying too hard!! He keeps sayin he wants to play the best football of his carrer for mark hughes! Why dosnt he just play like he did for the foxes and BC (great) for himself........... (Please don't use that word again) sparky, (Please don't use that word again) the fans ..........just play savvy..........no pressure

[John]

Opta think he has been poor.............

[waggy]

the sooner he is suspended the better,if we win the game that he misses will sparky bring him back

What sort of comment is that?

And who do you propose we bring in to replace him? or have you seen one of your godly youth players who can do a better job

my own personal stalker,savage is ###### is that a good enough comment for you,tugay and reid will do for me

[Presty On Tour]

he can play anywhere at the back but is most common to playing right back!!

sorted

[tchocky]

Please keep the slanging match to yourself. There's PM's for that sort of thing. The thread is still about Savage.

You really are determined to dislike him aren't you waggy? Why?
