What when we will have a nice hotel handy for the ground. Seems our ambition has moved on from titles to hospitality.

TMO bugged me, intervened to switch the feed into the scrum to Worcester ball but when Thompson is incorrectly penalised he is completely silent.

Can’t help but feel like Murphy was watching England and just decided to copy their tactics, and much like for them it didn’t work for us slowing the ball and then aimlessly kicking away, and then leaving quicker attacking players on the bench unused in Simmons and Aspland-Robinson, couldn’t have done any worse than White, Owen. It was also harsh on Hayes but Cole was one of our few player making a difference. I also have to wonder how poor Sarto has been in training that he’s being kept out of the team by Varnell and Olowofela!

Same old problem: poor kicking and no lessons learnt. I’m surprised, as it seems, Geordan is not allowing players to change a failing game plan.
From now on only play those who are staying, especially Hardwick, who will most likely be the main back up at fly half and at centre anyway.
Geordan needs to watch the Sale away game last season. I travelled fearing the worst. What happened, hardly any kicking and George Ford ran the game with heads up rugby.
The current tactics will not win matches!
Come on Geordan the faithful fans need sting actions not cheap words.
Will be at the Wasps game but fear the worst!!

I think its the only thing that supporters can make a joke about and raise a smile, albeit ironic but we don't have a lot to smile about at 1st team level! :smt017

Yes trying to develop the club finically is a distraction.

Let’s get into loads of debt.

apart from Tom and Cohen there is no crossover between the business and the team.

Although I did hear Bateman was the solicitor who handed the plans in to the council, Cole is going to be running the room service and Murphy the bar.

The only distraction it has to the rugby aspect is from fans who can’t let it go.

As people don't realise that the game is professional and think that money grows on trees.
