Where was the abuse of the Bath supporters happening? I know
this question has been asked a few times, if there was such
abuse was this reported at all?

Spoke with Bath supporters via twitter and all seem to have had
a good time, no reports of abuse, so if something happened must
have been a small incident
Also read today that Sarries supporters received abuse at the
Gardens, but it was just one supporter shouting insults it turns
out

For what worth, I agree with Cookie. I have been to a few
grounds around the country and those I don't warm to are where
the crowd is perpetually trying to change the referees
decisions. It is tedious, and against the ethos of rugby.
Sometimes you just have to take bad decisions on the nose and
get on with it. I think the Stoop is pretty good at not
badgering the referee. But I was surprised by the reaction to
the "blocking" incident.
But, hey ho, I'm a pretty old fashioned guy!

Yeah so far no one has managed to elaborate on their claims that
anyone abused Bath fans. We laughed and joked with the ones
around us.

Well we didn’t and left the stadium with an LBP.

“Ethos of rugby” or “reason everyone else thinks everyone who
likes rugby is a pink trouser and jumper tied round the
shoulders chinless Rupert”

Yes - but lots do it constantly - tigers, saints, glaws - we
don't do it often. We rarely get a homer though, so maybe that
should change!

The hilarious and tremendously entertaining booing you mean.
It was great - and should be applauded.
The “rugby is better than football” made up morality is one of
the reasons it’s not expanding faster. Classist horse poop and
patently not true - especially since we are best remembered for
an episode of blatant cheating.
