It’s very funny.
Even more funny are the desperate attempts by their fan base on X to entice Ricky Gervais to save the club.
It caused me to wonder who we would harass to save our skins. I don’t believe that Gervais has ever proclaimed an interest in RFC (other than as David Brent), so it can’t be someone who’s publicly stated an interest in the club, it can only be someone who happened to be from Oxford.
So, here’s my starter for ten:
Florence Pugh
Jonny and Colin Greenwood
David Mitchell
Tom Hollander
Hugh Laurie (Blackbird Leyser)
Sophie The Duchess of Sussex
Yasmin Le Bon
I’m not convinced that they could be relied upon to save the day, but it’s a useful list to maintain should the £150m need paying off sharpish.
Anymore?
