Thought Sky Sports News said he may not get the money as the ball had to be on the ground then kicked to hit the crossbar?

He punted it. He was meant to drop kick it.

Bit tight if they don't give the cash though.

He was given one of those big presentation cheques, that's not an actual payment though.

If you take one of those presentation cheques can they still be banked? I thought they were signed and everything...

No, as they have no bank account details on the bottom of the plastic cheque. All they are are for show.

Apparently Saracens had insured themselves against anyone actually winning. Somehow I doubt the insurance company will pay out, which leaves them with a bit of a PR disaster looming.

Nope, can't cash them. Like Alan said, they don't carry account details and even if they did, they'd never fit in a magnetic cheque reader.
