Talk:Saracens F.C.

message: Just found this on the Newcastle falcons page, if true then presumably we are no longer the only club to have toured Japan.
In August 2005 Falcons toured Japan pre-season. They beat NEC Green Rockets easily but lost to a fired-up Toyota Verblitz.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.219.218 (talk) 03:30, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I've tagged the history section as such because it's very lopsided. The 12 years of the professional era are given vastly greater coverage than the club's first 100 years, which only cover a handful of paragraphs. Dancarney (talk) 08:16, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Largely because it is a lot easier to find recent history than stuff that happened decades ago on the net.GordyB (talk) 09:40, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's amazing the attention what a win in the H-Cup  brings :) , Can i suggest that the professional era section should be spun of into History of  Saracens F.C. by season and then give an overview in the professional era of 95 to current Gnevin (talk) 20:43, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recentism 

message: It's my understanding that "Saracens" is an old term for believers of Islam. A quick search reveals that the word stems from the word "easterners." Does anyone know the origins of the name?

thread_title:  Origin Of Name 

message: The name as well as the logo seems to have an islamic theme. Is there anything to it? Pass a Method talk 21:04, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Islamic? 

message: Does anyone have the exact statistics easily available, I've been a strong sarries fan for 12 years, but I need some good statistics sheets (wins and losses and points against whom throughout the season, not just the final points of the season) - if someone can drop a few links to good places here I'll do the looking through them and typing up. 
Cheers

message: Is there a good reason why the likes of Michael Lynagh, Philippe Sella and Jannie De Beer are missing from the list? Personally, I would include Brendan Daniel (NZ) as well.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.144.136.77 (talk) 23:17, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notable Former Players 

message: What with the published info (as a secondary source, the massive planning permission which describes everything is with the council's published documents) and virtual tour there should be enough for a good length, decent paragraph describing the new stadium, since it is rather crucial part of Sarries - or are we waiting until we move in to do it?
I can freely assist (at least in a week's time I can), but would like others' view on it

message: All former Saracens players are notable. The 100 club section stands up to scrutiny, but not this. It's POV. I propose to scrub it and replace with a link to the Category, which should hold all former Saracens players. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 21:13, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move to Saracens R.C. ? 

message: Saracens use their name for several teams (Academy, Men, Storm, Women, Mavericks). The team mentioned in this article is called Saracens Men. The term Saracens can be used as the short form for all five teams., CallumJapan (talk) 11:20, 22 August 2019 (UTC
:Article would be better to reorganise into a few pages and that rename wouldn't be appropriate here. Govvy (talk) 09:31, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  This article is about the club founded in the 19yh century, the women's side is notable in it's own right and shares a name but little else. The Mavericks are a netball side that shares some branding and no history at all. The Storm are the reserves and not notable in their own right, a section on this article is appropriate for them.Skeene88 (talk) 17:20, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Journalistic 

message: I've blanked this section as the long-term consensus on the project was that these sections add unnecessary clutter to club pages. Understand many URC teams still have them but all were removed from Prem teams and I think that should stay. Skeene88 (talk) 10:38, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
