[QUOTE="Tony Manx, post: 575735, member: 50236"] I feel, and am open to contradiction from a French national on this question, the French are pretty strange on this one....due to the money spent recently they do seem to hate Toulon but have no problem with ASM or Toulouse, although they have had matching or bigger budgets, and will suffer Racing and Stade because "you expect Parisien clubs to have money"..... There are a lot of people that worry about the future of French International rugby with the large number of imports taking important spots in teams but there are limits to the number of imports now that can be in the squad although it does not really interefere too much! In addition, the reality is that there are more club members who care about their club than the International side and this was confirmed when I asked my neighbour why he was in the garden when a French International game was on. Also when I asked a fellow BO supporter if he thought England had a chance against France last season and he did not even know the match was on!!! [/QUOTE]
