[Archived] Robbie Savage's comments

[Amo]

From his column in today's Mirror:

Now Blackburn are in the Championship, and have slipped out of the play-off places, I hope the fans are happy they drove Steve Kean out in the end.

The club stood by Kean when they should have sacked him after Rovers were relegated, and then forced him out when he made a great start to the new season. Go figure.

Meanwhile, bringing in Berg, a popular ex-player, has not yet been the answer to Venky's prayers.

I loved playing for Blackburn, and I will always have a soft spot for them, but some might say they have got what they deserve.

[Tom]

I imagine he's saying what he thinks the majority of people feel to make himself more popular for his pundit career

[J*B]

Boom. All respect gone.

Long haired jumped up welsh kean.

[G Somerset Rover]

He's such a plank. At the start of the season and despite our decent start, I'm pretty sure he was saying we should pot Kean.

[Amo]

He can't even stick to one viewpoint.

First of all he was dead against Kean being manager.

Then after a few good results he said Kean should stay even if we were relegated.

Then after we went down he said Kean should do the "honourable thing" and resign.

Now he's saying the fans forced Kean out and we're no better off without him.

Strewth...

He's been distancing himself a bit away from Rovers for a while now. It's not fashionable in media circles to stick up for a club like Rovers plus we know whose tentacles are wrapped around that industry. If we'd have got Hughes back here he would have been all over us again and probably saying what a mess Kean left behind.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

He's a talentless prick, always has been, always will be. I hated the fact he pulled on our shirt. The likes of Ronnie Clayton had more skill in their little fingers.

[broadsword]

A bell-end striving to be popular.

I can't respect someone who can't even stick to one consistent point of view.

Sad.

[Waggy76]

Who signed the players we have now ,Robbie ?

[1864roverite]

I sent him a twitter message to let him know he is a keaning kean

[Steve Kean's Hypnotoad]

He's a talentless prick, always has been, always will be. I hated the fact he pulled on our shirt. The likes of Ronnie Clayton had more skill in their little fingers.

He played almost every game and was made captain in the year we finished 6th, I'd take him over 90% of midfielders who've played for us in the last 20 years.

Regarding this comment I think tomphil is spot on. Robbie has supported us fans to the hilt throughout this whilst almost all other ex-rovers have twisted the knife.

[Ewoodbhappy]

I think this just shows nobody knows what to make of our situation.

Whilst Venkys numb nuts are here - expect more of the same. Rationality & BRFC are a distant memory.

[RoyRover]

Robbie has changed position more than a pornstar doing an orgy scene. I remember him one night while summarising a game saying how he hoped Kean would stay on and keep us up and then later in the same game he said how he hoped Kean would do the correct thing and resign!

Um... No he hasn't?

Originally, he was very much on our side but quickly jumped on the Kean bandwagon and since then has been flip-flopping back and forth.

He just ran around like a headless chicken winding the opposition up, sooner or later he'd get booked and that was the last you'd see of for him that particular game. Next game, same old.

Savage has changed his mind a few times on this topic - again, his comments just show lack of understanding as he is looking from the outside in.

Funny how no one ever mentions Keans fat kean of an agent.

[beerwins]

You see how pundits change their opinion as they grow, the higher they climb up the ladder the less honest they become, they just say what the majority want to hear.

There all pricks tbh.

[Rovermatt]

The man has more positions than I can count.

I've just tweeted him. No doubt any response will include his staple "Hey, it's just my opinion."

[jim mk2]

Savage is wrong saying we got what we deserved because we never deserved Kean in the first place. But he has a point: results have got worse since Kean left. He's not the only one in the media saying it.

[Majiball]

what a kean. blackburns nearer Wales than Birmingham.

[onlyonejackwalker]

If I was as thick as Savage I would also be changing my mind regularly as the one he is using is absolutely useless.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Savage, if you respect the fans and club you played for then do us all a favour eh fella...keep your fookin gob shut!
