Our survey says.
The Ulster Rugby Supporters’ Club (URSC) has asked fans to consider five options as a response to the sackings of Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding.
The international duo had their contracts revoked by the IRFU on Friday after an internal review following their highly publicised rape trial at Belfast Crown Court.
Both players were acquitted of all charges, but it was decided they were to be let go because of their behaviour regardless. Head of Ulster Rugby Shane Logan has since come out to say he does not envisage the players playing for club or country again.
According to The Irish Independent, the five choices given to fans were as follows:
- Pleased they are gone, they have brought disgrace to Ulster Rugby. See you on Saturday;
- Move on, we are a Supporters’ Club and we support the club not individual players. See you on Saturday;
- Disappointed, but not surprised by the outcome. URSC to write to IRFU/Ulster expressing same;
- Appalled at the outcome – protest at the Glasgow game. See you outside on Saturday;
- Appalled at the outcome. Boycott Glasgow game. Won’t see you on Saturday.
Jackson and Olding are both expected to look for new clubs and continues their careers.
