Blues co-owner David Sullivan today said the club must stop looking to the past and move on from the Robbie Savage affair. "The club must stop looking to the past and move on from the Robbie Savage affair," said Sullivan, in an interview made up by Row Z today. "What's done is done; bygones are bygones; the chapter is closed; the sun is set; the jobby has been flushed; it's all water under the bridge. Robbie Savage is history. "His-to-ree. "As a club, we have to forget about Robbie and what he did to us. "We have to put the cynical betrayal behind us, pick up the pieces and find a way forward. "And by that I mean this: "Let's say Birmingham City Football Club have a player on their books. A good player but not half as good as he thinks he is. For the sake of illustrating our fable, which is in no way based on actual events, let's call him 'Bobby'. "One day, young 'Bobby' - who signed a new contract with the club a mere four months previously, mind - wanders into the manager's office and says he wants a transfer. 'Good one, Bobby,' laughs the manager, 'I like a lad with a sense of humour'. "But oh no, readers. 'Bobby', - who, incidentally, looks like a girl with his long, blond hair - is deadly serious. "And so a few weeks later 'Bobby' walks out on the club to sign for some third rate bunch of northerners. "And this act of wanton betrayal so upsets the club chairman that he ties 'Bobby' to the back of his Rolls-Royce by his, frankly, effeminate hair and drags him all the way to the chairman's palatial home in Essex which - as most of you will know - is quite a long way. "And by the time the get their Rob- sorry, 'Bobby' - who you'll remember was acting the big-time Charlie just a few moments ago - is just a limp husk of the man who thought he could take on Birmingham City Football Club and win. "That's the kind of thing that WON'T happen to Robbie Savage. Because we've put the whole business behind us. "Sorry, what was the question again?" |
