SAM Allardyce refused to be drawn into any discussion about Robbie Savage's role in the sendings-off of Paul Warhurst and Dean Holdsworth.

"That's down to Dave Bassett to sort out," he said. "It's his player and if he feels it wasn't right I'm sure he will take the right action as I would with my players. If anything I was disappointed in my two players for making rash challenges, which were not red card challenges, and I think what happened before which hadn't been dealt with correctly caused both of them to get wound up. They got a little bit over-heated. But not to the point of straight reds."
