Ron Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Clearly I am in the minority to think this but he comes across as the utter tit he has shown himself to be throughout his professional career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Tansley Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Clearly I am in the minority to think this but he comes across as the utter tit he has shown himself to be throughout his professional career. he started really well, but then he just had nothing else to kill the bloke off. wouldn't be happy with him as a player saying they're not good enough... could have been a bit more positive when he was asking for just that...

Ron Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I don't think he had a leg to stand on from the start... Everything in football comes from 'rumours', it just depends on your source, and neither I nor Savage should assume the quality of that journalist's source, but if we take his word as red, that it is worthy of being used, then of course he isn't going to name names... Savage is looking for a fight and just comes across as an idiot. If the players haven't lost confidence in the manager at Derby they should, S****horpe are hardly world beaters and absolutely nailed them in their own back yard, some of the defending from Derby that day was schoolboy stuff, if that. This lad who they've signed from Burton has been consistently terrible and they don't get anyone better in. Savage should sort out his own problems before he starts laying any blame at anyone else's door. "It's not helping..." It's nothing to do with the journos, their team has been shit all season, entirely their own fault, end of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent_bcfc Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I don't see why it matters who their back room staff played for at all. It's not what they did in their playing career is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrizleCiderArmy Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 As much of a tit as Robbie Savage is, and i mean a massive tit, it makes a change to hear a player questioning a journo and not following the typical 'listened to one interview listened to em all' scenario.

Yeah he whined a bit about the fans. Not a good move ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks for the link. Thing is that most BBC local radio stations are scared stiff of losing thier "contact" with its local BBC radio station, if the radio station asks what the fans really want answers too. Can you imagine BBC Bristol saturday sport saying,I am sorry we can't bring you your local radio commentarys in future,because we asked too many difficult question. Didn't a Brighton player ring into a radio station and question the presenters comment of the player? Didn't the Western Daily press get served with an eviction notice from swindon Town football club(now recinded) When a reporter taped a private conversation with a Swindon employee? At the end of the day it seems that Robbie savage says the National press can be critical of Derby county as they want too. Although Robbie Savage does not want critism from its allegly local radio station(and I presume the local Derby papers) A couple of things about Derby radio,at least they keep the same reporter and same commentator for Derby County unlike BBC Bristol which have a squad rotation for its Radio commentators,and is THE only BBC radio station that use's different radio commentators for all Bristol City matches.

BITW Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Savage is indeed a tit, but that was great fun to listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tezOfCity Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 That interviewer did a fantastic job of turinng that around, he realised savage probably had him on the ropes at the start but quickly realised savage is a fool and only had 1 point which he made repeatedly throughout the interview. The interviewer cleverly used that to make savage ADMIT that him and his team mates are not good enough hahaha Brilliant. I want that interview as my ringtone.

crusader Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 i thought Savage did an excellent job, he put interviewer in his place, no where to turn. If the manager hasnt the players good enough they wont be top of the table, simple! Interviewer trying to say Derby should beat Scunny because they are above them was the best ever, Chelsea should NEVER lose a game on that basis. Exactly right Mr Savage Local media and even fans on here do exactly the same by criticising players & management of Bristol City rather than getting behind the team Yes we are disappointed when results dont go away but the slating every two seconds does not one any favours.

CiderHider Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 heard this on 5 live, and i was cringing good. Robbie Savage is pleb and so was the journo who was clearing unable to decide how to respond. Savage should just stay away from the radio and the journo should quit his job, he clearly is useless at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Mat Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 I thought it was pretty embarrassing - for both of them. Savage comes across as not very bright, but the reporter doesn't really do his job and just gets all defensive! However, he got a few good jabs in. Gibson: The supporters who pay your wages, Robbie? Savage: No....well, yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we lost 4-1 at home to S****horpe you'd be singing from the effing rooftops? Get real. It was a horrific result and they'd be a good shout to go down at the end of the season, Clough had a decent enough squad and enhanced it with some joke from his old Conference team, and their defending on Saturday was nothing short of abysmal. If anyone wants an example of a club in crisis, there's your crisis. Knock-off Nigel has done a horrific job almost from day 1 and if the players still have belief in him they're fooling no one but themselves.
