[Archived] Savage

[daren]

Ha, Sav's a legend. In the Sky commentary box, when they were doing the Ciiteh build up to the game he muttered loudly enough to be heard by everyone "Blackburn are playing too!" Gotta love that guy.

Other noteworthy quotes:

In response to what did he think of Brad he said "Let's just say I'm lucky enough to be sitting here beside the second best keeper to play for Blackburn" (sitting beside Tim Flowers!)

In response to being asked did he feel sorry for the Citeh fans "No."

Fantastic. He also got the screws out of his leg 4-5 weeks early. Was a really good build up actually, with Flowers and Savage, with really good banter.

[Billy Castell]

He was a laugh as a pundit. It seems he loves people bitching about him, and he plays up to that fact.

Just watched it now....what a legend. I thought it was great when they were talking about the semi final draw and he said I would be extremely unlikely for Rovers to draw Watford, implying that it was fixed.

[Flopsy]

his calling the semi draw a fix made me laugh, as did the quick scurrying by the Sky presenters to disprove it

Soon cut to an ad break after that one

[Guest shoppybrfc]

Cant see him scoring the chance the Axe did today though...

Tim flowers face looked like at smacked arse after the match...remember where your championship medal came from son!

[Billy Castell]

I think the phrase i "sh_t we've been rumbled". Someone recently said they used to steal the numbered ball and put it in boiling water so they could find it when they were drawing the teams. Who was that?

[den]

Savage wont play again this season.

Bad news.

[Cocker]

I am quite glad in a way - means he wont be rushed back now into a game where he isnt match fit - which could have been the cup final

[1864roverite]

Hard luck story after what was really a bloody horrendous tackle

[frosty]

Bad news, I was hoping for him to be fit pretty soon because the centre midfield when Savage and Reid are out is pretty weak.

[pick32]

think if savage doesnt recovery fully from this injury that giles barnes would be an excellent signing he is only 18 years old and he has playes 27 games for derby this season scoring 8 goals.

[emglch]

Mr Savage, if you are reading this. rovers miss your tackling really badly. look at the form since your injury. we simply can't stop the opponents going down the middle and taking on the back 4. As a result, brad are making more wonder saves and conceding more goals. I really pray this season won't be one to forget.

There are some on here that are already saying it is!

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

That's in spite of having 4 at the back and 2 sat right in front of them !

Thats only cos they are behaving like spoilt brats and have the memory span of goldfish Fife.

Well, I wouldn't have used those words Theno, but some of the adverse comments are quite astounding.

[Hanks]

just watching the darts on sky and phil the power taylor won his semi. after the game taylor expressed concern at robbie's bad leg and hoped he would be fit this season

Is he a Rovers fan?! I had no idea. He can't be, surely. He would have said?

[Roar of the Rover]

Why? Does he know him or summat?

[brfc fan]

That's really weird. He's not a Blackburn fan and he's not Welsh. I don't think he knows him that well. Why did he say a random thing like that? :ph34r:

[Hanks]

could be that robbie is a big darts fan and knows him that way. someone did post a link of a darts match being disrupted by the crowd barracking robbie during a game.

[The Mercenary]

Phil Taylor is big mates with Robbie, he's worn "Savage power" on the back of his shirt a few times in the premier league darts this year instead of the usual "the power"

[modes98]

yeah from wha ti understand they are friends and Mr Savage often attends the darts. Seen him a fair few times on premier league darts since his broken leg.
