Is Savage a City Legend?

[Babylon]

I thought I had better bring this topic back to life again because when Dickov left (for good reasons), you all called him a 'twat' or a 'dickhead' and how he is not a legend, even though if it wasn't for him, we would still be in division one after getting relegated a couple of seasons ago. Savage jumped ships as soon as we got relegated and was not commited to playing in division one at all, and on this thread, a lot of posters are claiming that he is a legend!!

Here is one example. Scowy (the poster) has been criticising Dickov leaving on another thread by saying "Dickov is certainly not a legend. As far as I'm concerned, he can **** off." So he obviously doesn't think Dickov is a legend and basically thinks he's a knob. On the other hand, he says this about Scowcroft, "Savage was my favourite player by far when he was with us. Everyone recognises that he didn't have the talent, but the fact he was the most committed week in, week out made him a legend in my eyes.I agree with everything Speno, I hope he returns one day.", and totally bums him even though he jumped ship as soon as we went down. Im sorry for using you as an example Scowcroft, there are lots of other posters like you who have said that Dickov is a twat and Savage is a legend. Im just using you to make my point.

What I want to know is - why does everyone think Savage is a legend and Dickov is a twat?

Savage didn't leave after saying he would stay though, Savage was very transparent about the whole thing. Dickov did it cowardly. Also, Savage wasn't offered the same deal as Birmingham offered him from us. Dickov did. Dickov is a twat, Savage is a legend, end of story.

The difference occurs whereby at least Savage said he wanted to go, whereas Dickov says in front of 30k fans that he's staying, and then let's us all down.

Sorry for using you as an example but I was just trying to see why most people on this thread bums Robbie Savage and hates Paul Dickov.

When did Dickov say he was staying in front of 30K fans? I don't remember that.......

Last game of the season against Pompey. Birch asked him was he staying, Dickov replied: Yes.

If he'd have said No, and then the deal had have fallen through, he wouldn't have the backing of the fans... Dickov is worth 5 savages!

He could have said: ''I hope so'' not ''Yes''.
