Literally f**k em, hopefully they stay down for a long time.


Imagine Arsenal cheat for years and win 3 CL’s, PL’s and a domestic treble. Then we get caught, you think United fans gonna be goin all ‘oH fEeL sOrRy 4 ThEm PoOr GoOnAz!’ ?



I think that is where you misunderstood. I didn't say fans from other teams should feel sorry for them. I said "I" do. I am a Sarries fan, although just recently. So what I meant was, I feel sorry for their true fans that have been life long fans. They are the victims here. If the players knew that they were cheating then f**k them, they were part of the problem, but if they didn't, then I'd say they're victims too, because their careers are going to be affected, even if very minor.

I do also feel sorry for other teams that got cheated on. That doesn't mean I can't feel sorry for Sarries fans as well, not that I expect others to, because it's obvious they don't.

I now understand how people who don’t like football, get fed up with the amount of it on telly.

The Rugby WC has just finished and we’re straight into the usual forced enthusiasm for the 6 nations, that mostly bore me to tears! Most boring, are my golf chums, who dissect each match, discussing how one particularly player was ‘great’, ‘Amazing’ etc when all I can see is a mostly big pile of hefty blokes jumping on top of each other!

Only ever watch the world cups. Can tell you who's won every single World Cup and the teams they've beaten in the final.

Couldn't tell you who won last years 6 nations. It's like pre season friendlies.

Yay, the egg-shaped ball is back!!! Some people only watch football when WCs or internationals are on, I'm like that with RU, I would never watch a club mach, I wouldn't know who most of the players are or which clubs are the best, but I love the 6 Nations and WCs. Scotland up first for England on Saturday, it will be tough.

van der merwe, the one born in South Africa and lived in Scotland for 3 years and gets to play for Scotland, it's a joke.

On the whole, Scotland deserved their victory, England with a lot of rebuilding to do with a WC later this year.
