What did Robbie Savage do with his first big pay cheque?

Robbie Savage talked to Andrew Flintoff and Matthew Syed about the jump in wages he went received when signing for Leicester City.

Savage said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 bizarre, one minute you鈥檙e borrowing off your mum for a new pair of jeans, then you鈥檙e on 拢4,000 a week.鈥

Savage moved from Crewe where he earned 拢150 a week, and bought quite an unusual vehicle with his first pay cheque from the foxes.

鈥淚 had a little Fiesta 鈥 I crashed it and thought, 鈥渨hat can I buy?鈥 So I bought a pink Porsche. But it blew up the same night I bought it.鈥
