To misquote Andy Murray, I support Harlequins and anybody
playing against ShabbyCens.

Simply cannot watch them - I have not watched them for some
times as even though they had not been found to have pssd all
over the rules and the salary cap it was obvious to Blind Pew
that they were doing so. Sadly nothing has changed 5M is a drop
in the Ocean to Wray and they have the same squad - so what was
the point.
They have been sanctioned for a couple of years of cheating
whereas the reality is that they have been cheating for about a
decade.
Honestly it has totally reduced my appetite to watch games as I
do not see the point of a league where one club plays by
different rules to every one else.
It was rare for me not to go to the away games but I have not
been to been this season and am sure I will not and that I will
miss a few home games to boot. I feel that the domestic
competition that I have had season ticket at for years is just
a fraud and I have been a mug.
Had I not already renewed my ST when this came out I would not
have done so and will not do so next season. To me it is not
just Sarries that I despise and cannot watch it is that they
have taken away any point in watching the league games because
in effect nothing has changed.

I find watching the forward dominant Exeter VERY hard to watch
most of the time!!

Yeah, Exeter are dreadful to watch. Not sure why they are never
called up on it. Saracens play a far better brand of rugby these
days, cheats or no.

Ben Johnson was good to watch when he ran very fast wasn't he?
But once it was known he was cheating I lost my enthusiasm for
his performances.

Stuart Barnes often writes about this in The Times. Exeter are
admirable, rather than exciting. Cordero was fun to watch for
them last season, a bit of a throwback back-three jinkster.

Cor blimey! Exeter might be “admirable” or ‘dull”, but I suspect
many on here, all variants, would swap their successes over the
last 5 years for for the unhinged displays we have endured since
winning back on 2012...
