Print Edition
Scottish Rugby said it was appalled at the verbal abuse suffered by England coach Eddie Jones as he returned home via Manchester from his side鈥檚 Six Nations defeat at the weekend.
The Australian said he would not use public transport again after the incident which was captured on video. 鈥淪cottish Rugby is appalled by the verbal abuse suffered by Eddie Jones,鈥 a statement said. 鈥淭he disgusting behavior of those involved does not represent the values of our sport or its fans.鈥 Jones, who had led England to 24 victories in 25 games before the 13-25 loss in Edinburgh, was surrounded, apparently by Scotland supporters, at Manchester鈥檚 Oxford Road Station. After posing for selfies he was verbally abused before getting into a waiting car. Jones attended Manchester United鈥檚 Premier League game against Chelsea at Old Trafford on Sunday. 鈥淚鈥檒l make sure I won鈥檛 in future. It鈥檚 as simple as that,鈥 Jones told the BBC. 鈥淚鈥檓 a human being. I don鈥檛 consider myself any different from anyone else, so for me to travel on public transport I thought was okay.鈥
