Gloucester fans fuming as footage of Danny Cipriani emerges in X Factor crowd after loss to Saracens
Fans of English rugby team Gloucester were less than pleased to see this video clip emerge online yesterday. Some of the fans were even fuming.
A video online appeared of the X Factor: Celebrity which is an alternative version of the popular reality TV show. Rugby players, Ben Foden, Levi Davis and Thom Evans are all appearing on this years show, being marketed as a ‘hunky rugby trio’. They’re not actually that bad.
While the trio was performing there song on the Live Show the camera panned to the crowd. And who did we see in the crowd, Danny Cipriani!
Normally this would not be a problem at all, but fans are fuming because this show aired just three hours after Gloucester’s poor loss to Saracens in the Gallagher Premiership.
This meant that Danny Cipriani had to have left the match almost instantly after the match, which begs the question as to whether his head was truly in the game.
The fact Danny Cipriani is in London for Celebrity XFactor confirms his mindset and performance today…couldn’t wait to get off the pitch!

Must admit I feel uncomfortable about this Cipriani story yesterday, swanning off to London straight after the match for celebrity X Factor. Was his mind on that rather than on the match? Also was this why T'trees was on the bench?

Fair play to Cipriani, drops a 2/10 for Gloucester and heads off to appear live on X-factor

How the hell did Cipriani get to London for X-Factor so quickly after the game

Sorry to disagree but Cipriani was poor again yesterday as he was against Tigers the previous week. He is great behind a dominant pack but goes missing too often otherwise. Subbed for the 2nd week running don't buy this calf injury

The first few months at Gloucester were brilliant for Cipriani as he won the player of the year in the Premiership.
