Haha sorry in my tiredness last night after a day of travelling I got my stands mixed up! It’s the west stand I was referring to!

You would think with their obvious success they would have a lot more support, maybe all saving up for the final
As with the European semi final that was at Coventry, bank holiday was mentioned, travelling to Coventry when no transport available etc
Only one of those for this game was bank holiday, it did sound like more went from the West Country, but travelling support are usually very passionate supporters
But 9768 in a 10,00 capacity stadium is hardly empty

They have no local identity or history with the area which is not a rugby area in any way at all

I’m intrigued by this thinking given that there are two clubs (Hendon and Mill Hill) which literally border the Allianz.

Cheers - hence the question - and the “thread like this” was because of the national newspaper article wondering why the club couldn’t attract fans for a Prem semi final.

Its a bank holiday weekend and schools half term - mini getaway to the sun for a week, perhaps...

Ideally without getting into the usual Sarries bashing (please) - this is a genuine question.

They are the best team in Europe, star studded team, playing decent rugby.




IF they are the best team in Europe, why are Exeter above them in the Premiership table?

Because the table only qualifies you for the semi finals.

This question is too daft to deserve an answer.

Because the system as it stands allows teams to rest players through the season and still win the trophy.

Sarries have done this so successfully this season.

I’m going to have to presume this is a joke.
