[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 185620"] Surely it was unfair on the lower echelons of English rugby when the Welsh regions muscled them out of their very lucrative and eagerly anticipated battles against the country's big boys? Even if there are some big scores, there are also some memorable upsets - take Birmingham-Solihull (as was) against Wasps for example. The Anglo-Welsh Cup is unnecessary. I wouldn't mind so much if the Welsh teams had been amalgamated into the existing tournament, but there are an awful lot of fans who were left very disappointed when the all English straight knock-out competition was shunted out of the limelight.
