       Is all this fuss worth it, you can't get relegated, so a
       punishment can only be a fine, why not contrate on getting a
       system that can't be abused.

       I'm not sure that should it be as serious as the Sarries case
       relegation isn't out of the question. They just decided that for
       this season they wouldn't relegate the bottom-placed club as
       would have happened normally at the end of the season. There's
       nothing to stop them deciding to have next season as another
       with 13 clubs, simply promoting the Championship winners &
       relegating Tigers were they found to have been playing extremely
       fast & loose with the rules. All it would do is delay by a year
       the Premiership expanding to a 14 club competition.
       I'm by no means saying that Tigers have done anything wrong at
       this point. The investigation is only just underway.

       Even if there is no relegation, if they were deducted enough
       points to place them bottom of the Premiership it would mean no
       trophy, with all the marketing opportunities that come with
       being Champions and no European rugby which would also hit their
       pockets.

       Agreed, as I recall Mark Evans expressing concern around the
       impact of no European rugby on the Club's finances at the time
       of the incident that shall not be mentioned.

       Yes but it is the Quarter final that is critical to bottom line.
       If you get a home quarter final that all seems to go to the Club
       and of course outside season tickets.

       Yeah but no but... I got talking to one of the ticketing
       managers about it, and he said the main value to the club is in
       having the home games against top class European opposition
       during the pool stages. That year we were the best side in a
       very weak pool and he said that they would need a QF just to get
       the income they'd normally get from stronger opposition.
       (For the record, we got the QF - and a full house with it - and
       lost to Munster)

       Be ironic if Leicester got deducted points or position and
       Saracens ended up top of the table at the end of the season!

       I'd replace ironic with appalling.

       I'd replace ironing with a Corby Trouser Press, in particular
       one with a thermostatic temperature control.
