Robbie Savage Q & A Competition – The Winners

Robbie Savage Q & A - The Winners

We have had a fantastic response to the competition, with over 500 questions for Robbie in 3 weeks, some of them we could put to the public, some thoughtful and some hilarious. Robbie has looked through the 500 questions and picked 10 of his favorite questions to answer, the winning question will be answer by Robbie via video.

The winner will receive a pair of the fantastic new Adidas Predator X in White/Macaw Green…

The winning Question is from Aaron.

His question was… If you could pick any centre midfielder in the world to play alongside in your last game who would it be? Here is Robbie’s answer…Congratulations Aaron your Adidas Predator X will be on the way soon!!

Question 2 is from Patrick

P. Given your own prolific Twitter presence, how do you feel about footballers’ use of social media? Is it repairing the link between fan and player or does it represent a danger for pros?

RS. As you can probably tell I love twitter and Facebook!! There is no doubt that people who used to think I was an idiot have changed their mind thanks to twitter.

My aim has been to give people an insight into the life of a professional footballer, get to know the real Robbie Savage and all the banter that goes with it.

You do have a responsibility to your followers and ultimately use a bit of common sense before you type – I like being able to interact with the fans and despite some abusive messages from the minority it has been a brilliant experience for me.

Question 3 is from Barbara

B. hi robbie, being a mum and wife i would just like to know if it ever upsets members of your family when you get booed at all the games ???? if it was my husband or dad or son if it comes to that i know it would upset me very much…..or have they all learned to live with it?

RS. It isn’t very pleasant being booed but it is something that Sarah has had to put up with throughout my career. There will always be people out there looking to put you down but you just have to rise above it and believe in yourself. It is only what the people close to you think that matters most and my mum will always let me know if I have had a bad game anyway!!

Question 4 is from Alan

A. What has been your biggest regret in football ?

RS. Everton were looking to sign me at one point and whilst I don’t regret anything that has happened in my career, I ahave been very fortunate, I would have loved the opportunity to play at Goodison Park for Everton.

Question 5 is from Adrien

A. Robbie, Kids football in Wales is non-competitive until the age of 12. Do you think we should be rewarding kids who show potential just like we reward kids who are academically good. My sons team went three years unbeaten and they have nothing to show for it Fair or not??

RS. The important thing is that we encourage as many people to play and enjoy football as possible. There are far too many players leaving the game at an early age and we need to get more people back into the game, living a healthy lifestyle and enjoying the game that we all love so much.

Robbie Loves Marmite!Question 6 is from Amanda

A. Do you like marmite????

RS. Love it!!

Question 7 is from Deano

D. What is the most important thing you have learnt throughout your career that you will take with you in life?

RS. If you want something badly enough and you are prepared to put the hard work and dedication in then you can achieve anything.

Robbies Adidas AdiPureQuestion 8 is from Danny

D. What are the best boots you have played in over your career?

RS. I had a pair of Panthers with 4 stripes when I first started playing but have to say the AdiPures I have got at the moment are up there with the best I have had.

Question 9 is from Coventry

C. As a player you was either loved or hated aka marmite man,if you was playing against yourself do u think u would have liked or disliked yourself?

RS. I definitely wouldn’t have liked to play against myself – I would have been far too good!! Seriously though I go on to the field to do the best I can for my team not to be liked by the opposition – off the field is a different matter and I think people are starting to realise I am actually a good bloke.

The final question is from Scott

S. Robbie, Do you think I will win a pair of adidas predator X football boots

RS. No sorry pal but enjoyed the banter!! More work needed though if you want a pair of Predator’s.
