    JT has once again shown himself to be the complete tool that we all know that he is. Yes John you have had a better career – slow hand clap. But Savage has never racially abused an opposition player, cheated on his wife, slept with a team mates wife and as far as I know Savage understands and respects disable parking spaces. Yes Savage can be irritating but is certainly more intelligent than Terry and displays a much better knowledge of the game. Savage even had the class to laugh at Terry’s pathetic rant.

    I take your meaning, but Savage never struck me as one of life’s angels. It’s not normal to publicise cheating on a wife, so I think you are guessing a bit?

    I actually think Savage had a bad press, he has always seemed to me to be a decent bloke, a bit lacking in talent, which he made up for with extra aggression, but I maybe wrong but of the top of my head I cannot remember ever seeing any stories that put his character into question. Terry on the other hand is not a very nice person, I think we all know this. Top player, but a bit of a scroat.

    The higher up you are the more publicized the stories while with the lower profile stars the less its advertised-most footballers are not really too decent kind of people-you know the saying “Rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen while Football is a gentleman’s game played by thugs”.

    I thought Terry was pretty good in the press conference – about time he came out as a leader and started rallying his team.

    I don’t particularly like either Terry or Savage. I recall some nonsense a few years ago about Savage using some cock and bull excuse to try and leave his current club, claiming family issue – and when he forced it through he then moved to another club for big money that was no closer to home.

    I’m trying to remember which way round it was – I think it was Birmingham to Blackburn?

    anyway, who cares which one is the bigger arse – they are both complete cockwombles

    Would have been interesting if he’d have said it while Savage was still playing. I think Robbie has matured now, though, grown up and become a very good pundit.

    Terry is the captain of an underperforming Chelsea, and so he should expect to take criticism from pundits up and down the country.

    Rover Bond – The saying is ‘Football is a gentleman’s game played by ruffians, rugby is a ruffians game played by gentlemen’

    Now look at the English used in the saying and have a guess on how old it is.

    Robbie Savage still played most of his football in the top flight and if he had been racist to another player, or slept with another team mates wife, I am sure we would have known about it.

    Lets face it his whole family are a Jeremy Kyle show in the making. Dealing Cocaine, Shoplifting, Affairs with friend wives, and that doesn’t include Terry himself.

    Well said, as much as a football legend John Terry will be, off the field he’s a pathetic human being.

    Dont judge others unless you yourself are free of any wrong doings – it’s hypocritical

    Savage was a player who used to go out to break legs or cause as much hurt as possible-I still remember commentators referring to his name as befitting his nature. His not in a position to comment about other players as most of us are also not as we are basically average people not huge achievers such as Terry has been.

    just a correction to one of the posts above -the lady in question was not someones wife and in fact she had even broken up with Wayne Bridge at the time-so Terrys only victim was his own wife who he was having a very rocky relationship with also at that time

    Notnice – That is a bit lame and could be levelled at all posts on this site that are referring to certain individuals.

    Rover Bond – Savage never used to go out to break legs, he just played the game aggressively, I wouldn’t even see him as dirty as many other players who did not get half the publicity.

    Savage had a career threatening injury in his early days, and I don’t think he would want to inflict that on anyone else
