Loads of their fans got stuck on the M4 on official coaches and missed the first half. They're blaming the club for poor organization.
Felt a bit sorry for them tbh.
I had a saunter over to the Sarries forum and one of the contributors was stating how ironic it was that ERC was being slated for how they run the competition when their own, who had such a massive hand in the downfall of this competition, couldn't even get them to the biggest game in their history in CARDIFF ffs!
Also read quite a few Tweets from Sarries supporters to ERC begging them them delay the kick off as they were stuck on the coaches.
Didn't hear a peep out of Sarries fans after 10 minutes in the game
Lots of neutrals decided Toulon should be supported after Sarries fans were acting like knobs with their flags. Not sitting down, constatly waving them

incredible display of power from Toulon. it looked as though they saw everything Sarries could offer and then upped it considerably. Bastareaud had his best game I've seen him in for a while and even though I think he and his brother are glipes Steffon Armitage was fantastic.
I've a little bit of sympathy for Sarries. it was a bit like us v Leinster a few years back. you can beat everyone you come up against and still not be in the same league as your opponent in the final. The next few years will be akin to the Champions League...financial doping across the competition and the odd victory for the smaller teams. Not hugely looking forward to that atm.
@KevinBrennanMP: Congrats to Toulon - respect to Jonny Wilkinson but not the blokes from Henley around us who seemed to have no interest in the rugby at all.
Loved this tweet.. from a spectator who wasn't sure who to support before kick-off.

Fermain.. A disgrace to walk off in that manner and to ignore Wilkinson says a lot.... Russ sorry to say but that team would have done the same if not worse to us... As snipe says watching defence on TV may not be the most exciting thing but we would not have got through that in 2 days of trying.

I am so happy, and still chuckling at the English commentators dismal exuses
