Latest on London Irish and sounds worrying: Apparently, wages have not been paid this morning as promised and players/staff attending a club meeting at 11.45.
Given how fast money can be transferred 24 hours a day, no more so-called banking hours, that does not bode well for the game at the weekend.
Moreover, I wonder if, at this stage they drop out of the PRL, as We and Wuss have, how that would affect the tables with all their games taken out? Gets out calculator. Saints move up to 3rd and Leicester down to 4th, with Saints 4 points ahead of Tigers. Tigers have one game to play, Saints are all done for the season. Tigers have a massive advantage on points difference, so all they have to do is beat Quins at Welford Road. Chiefs would not be playing, so they stay outside of the top 4. Newcastle still remain bottom, but only just behind (2pts) Glaws, so for those two teams, the wooden spoon is still to play for. Newcastle play away at Sale, but Sale have nothing to play for, their 2nd place is assured. Glaws play away at Bristol, and I figure Bristol may want to win their last home game of the season, especially against local rivals. So, who knows, Maybe Glaws would get the wooden spoon?
