He is doing a stunt for Sports Relief sitting on 40,000 Wembley seats in five days, to which Garey Lineker said: "It's nice to see him sitting on his arse - rather than talk out of it!"
Former West Ham defender Razor Ruddick once said: "Savage is a wimp. He starts the trouble, then pisses off and runs for cover, leaving others to sort it out."
But what about this for a classic, from former referee Graham Poll:-
Robbie was playing for Leicester, who were already relegated, and it was the penultimate game at their old Filbert Street stadium.
I had finished my warm-up when Savage burst into the officials' changing room. I asked him to leave but he said: "I've got to use your loo, I'm busting for a s**t." With that, he went into our toilet, sat down and, with the door wide open, he gave a running commentary as he defecated.
We could not believe what was happening. I saw his team-mate Matt Elliott in the corridor and asked if the toilets were working OK in the Leicester dressing-room. He confirmed this to be the case.
While Robbie was in the cubicle, Dennis Hedges, the match observer, entered the dressing-room.
Now I was almost lost for words, but remarked that he should consider washing his hands. "No need," he replied. Then he promptly wiped his hands down the lapels of Dennis's jacket.
Now, I am not a prude. I have spent a lot of time around footballers. I am used to language and behaviour which, in other walks of life, would be considered crude. They don't bother me at all, normally, but Savage's behaviour was just horrible.
I wouldn't report a player for using my loo but wiping his hands down Dennis's jacket was being deeply disrespectful.
The Leicester manager Micky Adams apologised when he learned how his player had behaved and the club fined him two weeks' wages, the maximum penalty they could impose.
The FA charged Robbie with improper conduct.
I managed to have one laugh at Savage's expense on another occasion, though.
He had committed a foul and when I was dealing with him, I said that I was in charge of the game, not him.
He said: "Yeah, but I've got more money than you." After a pause, he added: "Loads more money."
Towards the end of the match Savage asked how much time was left to play. I said: "Sorry, Robbie, I can only afford a cheap watch and it's broken."
