What a great game of rugby and what a great advert for the premiership. Bath really played well – as did Tigers. The referee also had a good game except for one howler – the spear tackle on Little should have resulted in a yellow card. This error was compounded when a few minutes later Little was sent off for something only the linesman saw.

With Little though we definitely have a good kicker now.

The new layout in the stadium seems to be working well and its increased capacity is already nearly sold out for the games. It will be interesting to see what the attitude of the new Chief Executive is to the long running issue of the new stadium requirements.
