Title: Saracens
Post by: wycombewasp on May 28, 2023, 01:53:08 PM
 Farrell, BBC Rugby, quote, Saracens can raise the celling higher, he must be talking about how much they can cheat the salary cap by and not be investigated.

The current demise of English club Rugby started with Saracens winning multiple trophies whilst cheating, the fact that 3 clubs have/will go into liquidation this season is in no small part due to their selfish pursuit of titles whatever the cost.

To me yesterdays win for them is just as hollow a victory as the others they have claimed in the last decade.

They have won zero titles.
They have encouraged me to stop reading the RP and any other publication whose journos they have schmoozed into giving their 'achievements' a degree of verisimilitude. So, thanks for saving me money, Sarries. Now die so we can all get some justice.

There are lots of problems with the English game but most can be summed up in the word Saracens. Entitled serial cheats who have zero class and are salivated over by press and pundits for a reason they only know. Cheats, and unpleasant cheats into the bargain - you are welcome to your 10 team borefest. Ps, I suspect you still do not have 1 legitimate title!

And another

And yet on Ruck, McCall is moaning that they are losing players because of the reduced cap. Unbelievable ( if it were any other club)

Just like the Russian Athletics Federation I suppose. Took decades for them finally to be dealt with ? sort of.

Yes, but like all sports ruling bodies, accommodations will be made to allow cheats to prosper. It has always been thus, and will always be. One would like to believe that they believe in redemption, but we all know it is all about money in back pockets.

Most people can be bought, for the right price. Ask Melania Trump (or Ivana before her). But, if you want me to shut up about this, ?10 will do it (I am cheap).

I don't think the Trump family is in the same league as the Bidens. You read the wrong newspapers!

Good mate of mine is a Saracens supporter, ex STH when they played at Vicarage Rd. He put a celebratory message and picture on social media after their win - nothing redemptive, just celebratory - and I replied with "so pleased they have got a return on their investment".

Don't want to fall out over it so we will avoid the topic of rugby for a while. Because my club is no longer he will never have the moral high ground, never mind the systematic and proven level of cheating that went on, and to many still goes unpunished.
