As much as I agree with everything said above, sadly, however strong the feeling among fans of other clubs, there is an inevitability to Sarries coming back up with or without playing a game in the Championship.
Allowing them to come up and replace the 12th placed Prem team without kicking a ball in the Championship would face an inevitable legal challenge from Leicester (sorry, I mean the relegated team!), and a 13 team league doesn't really work and could face its own legal challenge from Ealing and perhaps others in the Championship. I read this that Ealing have been given a leg up to avert a court battle to contest Sarries being promoted based on reputation alone. Other Championship clubs could legitimately argue their own right to promotion is no different to that of Sarries or Ealing, but if none of them is prepared to put their money where their mouth is and buy in as Ealing reportedly are then that might just be that.
It stinks that Sarries punishment might be no more than to sit out a season that's being played behind closed doors anyway. Much as we'd all love it if no Championship 20/21 meant they had to sit tight for another year, that was never really any more than a fantasy. It ain't fair, but then what is at the moment?
