Savage remark is snow joke

ROBBIE Savage made a cheeky suggestion about his pal and former Leicester City team-mate Paul Dickov on the radio at the weekend.

The Derby midfielder, who doubles up as a broadcaster on BBC Radio 5 Live's 606 phone-in show, was very complimentary about Dickov's managerial career so far when an excited Athletic fan rang in to discuss recent progress.

However, Savage then said that Athletic should brace themselves for the potential loss of Dickov over Christmas.

According to the Welsh midfielder, that is due to the upcoming pantomime season — when the Scot could be needed to star in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!
