Boyd banned for two games
Former Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd has been banned from two Northampton Saints games for allegedly claiming a referee ‘‘didn’t have enough nuts’’. Boyd, Northampton’s director of rugby, will miss their European Champions Cup match against Ulster today and also the weekend’s encounter with French club Racing 92. The 63-year-old, who coached the Hurricanes to a Super Rugby title, appeared at an independent disciplinary hearing on Friday convened by Premiership Rugby. A remorseful Boyd, who previously had ‘‘an impeccable discipline record’’, admitted to a charge of conduct prejudicial to the game’s interests.
