Savage withdraws loo appeal

Last updated : 30 April 2003 By Brian Cartlidge
Savage was fined £10,000 by the FA's discilinary commission for using match referee Graham Polls toilet without permission prior to Leicester City's game against Aston Villa last April.

The Wales international appealed the decision but after seven months of waiting for the appeal to be heard Savage has finally agreed to pay-up.

Leicester also fined Savage £50,000 for the incident but have now withdrawn that and Savage has agreed to donate £2500 to a local Leicester charity.
