Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
Tough between banker and politicians but bankers rhymes with ....... so they come out on top.
Don't like London Welsh for signing Tango man but at least they are taking the brunt of criticism. It means other clubs don't get criticised as much.
Cheers London Welsh.

To be fair you should add Ospreys, Leicester and Saracens. Probably all hated more than London Welsh.

Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
Does anyone actually hate LW? Personally I'm delighted they're in the Jeff. They've stuck 2 fingers up to the ridiculous entry criteria and more importantly it's far easier to get to Oxford than Newcastle for an away game - even if it is to a soulless football stadium that will be half empty with fervent away supporters and apathetic "home" supporters

And HongKongCherry - LW are unlikely to beat you home and away (unlike a certain side now facing Championship Rugby)

Well there's only me and Knackeredknees who are Saracens supporters.
There's numerous Leicester fans.
You don't think Ospreys would be in the equation.
Also you forget that neutrals could vote.

I'm sure they'll beat us in Oxford - but there's nothing worse after a loss to have a long journey home before you can drown your sorrows!

Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
Shocked - Is it just you two? With the Equo baiting back and forth I always assume there were more of you.
HKC - I don't think anyone really hates LW, however i was in a discussion on another thread, and explained I was defending them because someone had to and they were hated more than bankers. Which lead to me putting it to a vote (and my first semi-wum thread).

Lets be honest nobody will miss the trip to Newcastle to watch the home team play a dull limited outdated brand of rugby, London Welsh will offer something different plus every team will expect a 5 pointer against them.

Nah it's just me and Knackeredknees. I just a post a lot which probably gives people the impression Saracens have more fans.
A bit like the club I do a lot of shouting which increases the awareness of the club but doesn't bring in the punters.
It's only us two who go to Saracen's games of course. Can't blame people to be honest - playing in Watford doesn't exactly help matters. Neither does the boring kick kick kick style. Oh and the South African influence that the old boys at the top table in the AP find deplorable.
London Welsh are like a lesser version of Saracens. They have their own unappealing influence - Welsh. Don't play at their own ground. Ruffle feathers. They signed Gavin Henson.
Just not as good. Not as old or established in the top tier as us. Poor guys.

You were right to do that HERSH, I am concerned about Glaws' chances of getting a win there, after all it's not the Wreck!

Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
Beshocker - sarries play in Watford? I thought it was Boston or somewhere. Being serious though there are a few JEff sides that are a bit nomadic now. In an ideal world they would all be at their won homes, in rugby stadia, as opposed to renting from football teams.
P.S So far I was right they are more hated than bankers

Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
ScarletSpiderman I don't think anyone knows where the hell Saracens are going to be playing in most games next season.
This is why I am so pleased London Welsh have taken all the flack and bullets which could be for us.
It's hardly surprising it's mostly "London" clubs with stadia problems - the red tape and planning permission in London is probably the most strenuous of the lot. It's also very expensive.
Saracens are very lucky to sugar daddies worth a ludicrous amount to fund stadium plans.
How wealthy are London Welsh?

Sprouts, cooked properly and with some added ingredients, are tasty and healthy. Don't bad mouth them simply because whoever's served them up to you in the past can't cook properly or use culinary imagination.
I've just put mine on ready for Christmas.

That's a good point actually. Completely overrides the Welsh thing. I was raised a socialist as well and Oxford are a symbol of Elitism AND have Cameron as MP.
I had to drop the hating Welsh thing. My wife gets upset if I say I hate her.

Rumour has it they want to sing the Welsh National anthem on the pitch before every game in the Jeff.
This seems wrong to me.

They wouldn't fund the regions if they could find a way not to. So I doubt they will do anything other than milk LW as an advert for them.

Re: Which is more disliked London Welsh Or Bankers Or Politicians
There's a certain amount of schadenfreuder going on amongst the Saracens fans here, I think we should all reassure them that once Oxford Welsh have been pulverised in the league and nobody takes pleasure out of kicking them when they're down any more, attention will quickly turn back to the widespread abhorence of the South African ones..

The real question is who next? Or does that come down to who leads the NEQ numbers?

Good God man! No. I meant that funny thing they do in West England, something about hens. Ask John Redwood. He's a good chap and knows the head bob moves. Now where did I put that Pimms.
Actually I do tend to mute GSTQ. And Spiderman, it does roughly come down to NEQ numbers. Although if one side has more NEQ but still has a significant number of young, talented EQ players then I'm happy. So Quins, good. Tigers, good. Saints, good. Sale, hmmm we'll see. Irish, good. Newcastle, hmmm. Worcester, hmmm not as bad as they were it seems. Exeter, hmmm, get points for the massive improvement and the fact their academy has got a lot of very good players coming through. Etc, etc.

I hate GSTQ personally. Nothing to do with the sentiment, just don't like the music. Rather jealous of the other Hone Nations' anthems. Why can't we keep GSTQ for the UK and let England have Jerusalem or the Two Fatherlands or something?

I like GSTQ but I agree that England should have 'land of hope and glory' or 'Jerusalem' at sporting events.
Maybe we should have GSTQ and one of the others too, we all like a good sing song

Wasps have 15 NEQ in their squad as things stand.
London Irish - 19 NEQ in their squad out of 32.
Saracens - 16 NEQs in the squad out of 41
Exeter - 15 NEQs in the squad (1 extra if you include Budgen) out of 40.
Sale Sharks - 15 NEQ in the squad out of 33.
Looks like the main culprits are London Irish.
