Bath 17 - 71 Saracens 

Just goes to show how well the Championship teams did against Saracens, as we put up better performances than Bath with all their internationals.

Also illustrates perfectly why ringfencing was/is an absolute farce. Bath didn’t even look like they were trying in defence, embarrassing really. Towards the end of the season these one-sided matches will become more common, you never know, the penny might drop eventually. Saracens were excellent but it was far too easy for them at times. You’re right though, it paints the Championship Teams’ performance against them in a fairly good light, with a tiny drop in the ocean compared to the budget that Bath will have!.

If (BIG 'if') Bath were ever to be relegated would they be allowed back into the Premiership whilst not holding tenure of ownership on their ground at 'The Rec'. This, of course, is one way PCL stop Championship clubs from entering into the promised land.

I watched it - it was horrible and Bath were awful and had an even worse day at the office. Sarries were even stronger than the team that took a quality Ealing side apart in the play-offs. 
Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.

Yes. Existing members do not have to match current requirements for admission in order to be readmitted.
