The worry is how it could affect the England team. Saracens clearly have players who will be integral to the England set up moving forward. Is it feasible for them to move to other English clubs? Or will it be a case of them moving abroad and the RFU suspending its rules around non domestic players not being eligible for these players?
The more that i read about this, the more i think that Saracens got off lightly. If it’s correct that they’re still refusing to allow a full review of their finances, I’d have relegated them another couple of divisions.
Just back from the Northampton v London Irish game, where Saints missed the chance to go top in quite spectacular style, throwing it away dramatically in the last 50 seconds. Not helped by some of the worst officiating in professional sport I've ever seen.
RFU cut their funding of The Championship in halfhttps://www.theguardian.com/sport/2020/feb/11/championship-clubs-rfu-brutal-slash-fundingAfter the RFU saying that the division needed to be professional, they now seem to be trying to end professional rugby outside the Premiership.A real shame for the players and management at these clubs........apart from everyone at that fake club in Hartpury, they can go swivel
Has anything been said by European Rugby regarding a punishment for Saracens ?Should they be banned from European competition for a few years after they regain their position in the Premiership ?
