OT really Euros
« on: May 10, 2019, 12:33:40 PM »
So here we are in an empty bar in Newcastle and tossing up who to support alongside Leinster and must say leaning slightly towards Clermont but have a soft spot for LaRocs

Sarries and Clermont for me. If there is one side that I really dislike it is Leinster.

I dislike Saracens and Leinster in equal measure, both 10s get up my nose amongst other things, so don’t care either way. La Rochelle in the other comp. don’t ask me why, just would like to see them win.
It was fine when I left it.....

Cannot shout for Sarries, would be as bad as wanting Leicester to win. Also a very amiable Irishman swapped flags with us after the Leinster match at the Ricoh and would be a shame to waste it.
So Wasps shirt and Leinster flag at the ready...Probably end up sat with a load of Sarries supporters.

There aren't simply 'loads' of the estate agents supporters. So you are probably quite safe.  ;)

Better than being with Sid and Doris Bonkers from the EAs?

Enjoyed the Claremont / La Rochelle game, both teams have a story. Despite being behind for the whole game, I spent most of the time thinking La Rochelle could come back. A bit like Wasps this season, La Rochelle just couldn't finish off their breaks against a good defence.

Is it me or do teams seem to be better at getting between support runners and the ball carrier this season, seems effective.

Normally have someone to cheer. Harder with this one.
Probably Sarries, but if Farrell got red carded saving an early try with a no arms tackle I would laugh.
Munster, Leinster are two teams I just never support. Ever.

Today, I'm neutral. I don't support teams other than Wasps (always) and Gloucester which has been my second team for years. In fact I'd rather neither won it because I would have really liked to see a fresh name on the European Cup. Should Leinster win then the criticism of the Pro 14 protected selections will continue. Should the estate agents prevail then their win will be tainted by accusations/allegations of financial doping.
