Hear about him possibly being over 30K down because of a bet he made at the beginning of the season..? He made a bet with a Newcastle taxi driver, during a post-match 606 programme, that if Toon were in the top 4 at the end of the season he would buy the bloke a brand new taxi. At the time, Toon were 3rd and the bloke had boasted they'd stay up there, hence Savage making his bet. The other day the bloke rang up Robbie to remind him, and fair play, Savage said that he was a man of his word and he would honour the bet. Mind you, he could do little else, if he wants to build his popularity.
