Title: Stuart Barnes in The Times - I'm furious
Post by: JF on October 14, 2022, 07:30:35 PM
Here's part of the toxic dwarf's article today:

Saracens are a template for clubs kicked out of the Premiership for irregular off-the-field practices. In their first season back, they were seconds from becoming Gallagher Premiership champions.

I've long disliked his pub bore musings, but this takes the biscuit. "Irregular off field practices"? Factually inaccurate and potentially defamatory.

I've always hated his verbal diarrhea when commentating, and his twisting every which way to "prove" his opinion.
But have normally accepted his written articles as reasoned.

But this apparent praise of the cheats takes the biscuit. I wonder if he's on their payroll!!

A Wasp got in the way of your England career. Get over it, it was decades ago.

First rule of social media: don’t feed the Troll.

Barnes is just a chippy attention seeker. Saracens are the template for everything bad in the game. From cheating to whooping and hollering and even the nasty plastic they play on. They have it all.

+1, especially re Saracens.
