Savage denies media work is impacting role as manager

Peterborough United boss Robbie Savage has rejected criticism of his work as a co-commentator and pundit as "a narrative that gets created if we're not winning games".

Savage was appointed on 2 October and won his first two games in charge but Posh have failed to win any of their past six games.

Before Saturday's 5-0 home defeat by Reading in the FA Cup, Savage co-commentated for TNT's coverage of AEK Athens v Real Madrid and Oxford City v Leicester City on Wednesday and Friday respectively.

The 52-year-old has also continued to present 606 on BBC Radio 5 Live, although did not feature on the post-match reaction show last weekend.
