Saracens v Bath

[Mark62]

Now a rout 53 -10 as I type. Saracens playing some class rugby but Bath have capitulated especially after Lowe was replaced

[Soggypitch]

Brilliant. Bring on Twickenham!!

[Mark62]

They have a challenge cup quarterfinal next weekend too, will be interesting to see what side they put out as their resources are stretched in some areas

[Snorbins]

What is more concerning we are taking baffs 10. Hopefully Oval Park may teach him not to be soft!

I think that Sarries Trashing of Bath just underlines the fact that if Tigers play at their best a week on Saturday, then a vital victory is possible. I would urge all fans who have not done so to buy tickets for this fixture, After all it may be your one and only chance to visit Twickers this season.

And some question your astuteness Noddy...

Best not read too much into the result against Sarries. Barff have both eyes on Tigers. They don't care how their season goes providing they put one over on Tigers. Expect a backlash.
Bannerman was getting back to form - Rocko was snuffed out early doors.
Their target is Tigers - nothing else matters.
Please lets not let this week-end result against Sarries undermine the fact that we need to be at it at HQ.
My place is booked and I need to be putting one over Barff and AH that well known gob :censored: who only needs a excuse to put down his old club.

I have my ticket!! Looking forward to this one. Crunch game, MOC in charge, Bath on the backlash. What could go wrong?

Bath had a few players returning from injury and suspension so the side weren't really cohesive, there were some good individual performances but not much else. A swirling wind and the plastic pitch made life that little more difficult.

We all know that if you don't bring your best to Allianz Park it's going to get ugly. Bath didn't as noted above and got absolutely crushed as they faltered in the second half.

Bath will want some silverware to ease the pressure from disillusioned fans so expect them to name a strong team next week. Similarly they need the win against us so I doubt they'll much rotation it'll be a case of best 23 available.

I'm sure I'm being dense, but why is the match at Twickers?

I'm sure I'm being dense, but why is the match at Twickers?

Money I would think - some marketing person obviously saw an opportunity to maximise profit - I'd like to think they were clairvoyant in some way and foresaw the importance of the match, but the cynic in me can't see past the potential profit.

Still, you can't fault it, they've sold 50000 tickets so far.

Like the same Claire Voyant decided to shut the Great Western line about the Bath area for the electrification and engineering works forcing their supporters to coach from Bath & Chippenham that weekend. A must win match for Tigers.
