[Uncle C]

[Frutos]

Monday morning has been and gone...

[Simster]

I hope we don't get him and Mickey Adams instead simply plays our best midfield players in midfield.

 

[Mendoza]

which Monday morning?

Crewe and Vale linked with Savage

Savage joined Derby from Blackburn in January 2008
Crewe Alexandra have turned down the opportunity to sign Derby midfielder Robbie Savage, who is available on loan, reports BBC Radio Stoke.

But Port Vale are believed to be interested in signing the Wales international and have contacted the Rams about a possible deal.

However, it is thought the Valiants are unable to afford to pay their part of the 33-year-old's £25,000-a-week wages.

Savage spent three years with Crewe before joining Leicester City in 1997.


interesting..

 

[Horsham Gull]

he wont go to a failing league 2 side surely?

Well it would be rather depressing if he chose Vale over us, despite their relative proximity to where he currently lives.

I really cannot see him dropping down to League 2 to play for Port Vale. Surely we have to be a better option. Would be funny seeing Savage kicking lumps out of leeds!

 

[Tooting Gull]

I hope we don't sign him. Firstly, he's a complete tw*t, and secondly he's being kept out of the Derby team by a 19-year-old who can actually run. The years have caught up with an average player, let's look elsewhere.

Obviously feel free to revisit this post when we sign him and he goes on to spearhead a charge up the table with a series of dynamic midfield displays.

Barmby, Anderton, droped leagues and done well, why wouldn,t Savage?

They were much better players with some skill? Savage's game was always based on charging around. Now he can't.

If we are having to stump up £25k a week for his services, then that tousle-haired, dumb blonde narky welsh PONCE can piss right off.

However, if there is an arrangement to split his wages with Derby, then I would be delighted to see the hugely experienced, fiery, talented, gifted midfield MAESTRO adorning our team for a month or two.

Exactly. It's only for a month as well. I know a lot of people don't like (hate) him, but surely he'd be an asset in our division?

Sums it up perfectly really.

To be fair they are both former England internationals whereas Savage wasn't even guaranteed a place in the Welsh team

I doubt anyone would take him if they had to pay the whole £25k per week!

 

[Socky]

Surely a player of his experience can only be a good signing for us. I hope we get him but find it hard to believe we will. I would be more than happy if next Saturday our midfield was:-
Livermore/Thomson, Savage, Thornton, Anyinsah.
Any thoughts?
