Saracens v Quins at Wembley

Post by G.K »

Good game but I thought Quins tactically were poor, Saffas march on.

Absolutely fed up with the stupid music though whenever there was a pause in play :smt009
Nowadays referees decide matches, players by how much.

Amount of tickets given away to make it look like Saracens have a large fan base, clearly a significant number didn't show up. How much did it cost?

As I posted in another thread, McCall the Sarries DOR is getting snippy because they are only getting 8 thousand at their home games. He thinks they"deserve more". They have had a full house (10,000) only twice. When we played them at Wembley a while ago they told every Allianz employee that he/she could have up to 5 free tickets. There are 35,000 Allianz employees in the UK

Stupid music and a stupid announcer. Maybe if Sarries actually had more than a few thousand supporters and didn't go to Wembley chasing attendance records (I'm sure we'd have a full house every week if we sold 15000 tickets for a fiver!) they wouldn't need to create "atmosphere"...

I was concerned that the Laws had been deleted that dealt with blocking. Saffas seemed to have borrowed the old ABs playbook in creating running lines for the FB.

Can't see them giving up the advantage the plastic carpet gives them. No crowd capacity restriction as far as I'm aware
