Just read Sarries board on this topic. A lot of support from
other clubs for their fans and most Sarries posters accepting
relegation but some additional nuggets in there from other
sources. Apparently Sarries missed a deadline which was part of
the verdict where they were to show books for this year and
another snippet that they were £1.3 m over cap last year

The Times reporting this morning that they’re on course to be
over £1m over the cap this year unless they can shed players.
Also stating that none of the other clubs feel overly inclined
to help buyout contracts.

If clubs are already paying up to the cap, like us and prob a
few others, then it is impossible to take any Sarries player. If
they are available next season then a lot of players in other
league clubs may well find their contracts not being renewed
because of the fire sale as they all abandon ship

Also hear that while Sarries were BSing about the accounting
'misunderstanding' with the co-investments, the other clubs were
reading the judgment which, by all accounts, is extremely ugly
reading for Sarries.

accepted it. They deserve it. I include the management staff
(McCall, Sanderson etc) and the players. The fact they haven’t
had the finger pointed at them bemuses me slightly. They are
just as guilty as Wray.

I can't agree with that, it makes no sense. This is all on Wray.
What's amazing is that it took employing the services of a
global powerhouse in financial/business consulting to convince
him that he's the bad egg in the whole sorry saga and that he
should naff off and take his arrogance and lack of integrity
with him.

This sudden glut of players will only demonstrate the artificial
inflation of player wages that Sarries have caused by their lack
of adherence to the cap. This will have negatively impacted all
the other clubs in terms of what they can afford.

I wonder if Jones will be on the times rugby Podcast to defend
Saracens. Saracens - the saviour of English rugby - seem to have
no defence and will go down if the rumours are true but I do not
understand what is happening as Jones said Saracens players
would play for far below market value just to put on a Saracens
shirt. Has Wray built and then destroyed a club?

I disagree. Wray was the instigator but I cannot believe players
like Farrell did not think he was doing something wrong taking
Wrays dodgy 'investment' money.

Farrell, and other players, could think all they liked, but
unless they knew all the details of every players' contract, and
had access to a calculator, then that's all they could do -
think.
