You can't refuse players of Savage's calibre. Yes, he'll get yellow cards, but then so will Dean Cox with his petulance.
What is good to see is that we're making efforts to sign the right type of players. Although with the wage restrictions the board have put in place, I'd be surprised if we'd sign anyone of any significance.
I like the idea of us signing Savage (proven premiership/international player) but surely he is not the creative midfield player we are looking for? He's just an aggressive version of Thomson and Livermore.
It says in plenty of places on the internet that Savage has turned us down. Not suprised really. Good to see the Albion linked with these sort of players though.
