BBC Sports host Emma Louise Jones calls Robbie Savage a ‘w***er’ and says ‘any excuse’
BBC SPORTS host Emma Louise Jones used some quick thinking to call Robbie Savage a “w***er”.
The pair appeared on a podcast together to preview Wales’ Euro 2024 qualifier against Poland.
They were joined on the On Another Planet podcast by a Polish fan.
Savage asked their guest to deliver a rousing speech to inspire Poland to victory in the winner-takes-all final qualifier against Wales.
After he finished Jones quickly interjected by seizing on an opportunity to poke fun at her co-host.
She said: “He just said Robbie Savage is a w***er”.
Savage, 49, took the jibe in good spirits and burst out in fits of laughter.
Jones later took to Instagram to share the clip, adding the caption: “Any excuse to call Robbie Savage a w***er “
However Savage was not laughing for long as Wales suffered a heartbreaking penalty shoot-out defeat to Poland.
The match was goalless at the end of extra-time and Dan James missed the decisive spot-kick which means Wales will miss out on a trip to Germany this summer.
Goalkeeper Danny Ward was even given a cheat sheet to look over before the shoot-out which told him which way to dive against each opponent.
But he failed to save a single penalty as Wales went crashing out.
