Presenting at the Vegas Venture Forum resulted in an invitation to present at the top private equity conference in my industry. This dramatically increased our visibility and helped us to raise the funds we were seeking. |
The signs are that Ollie may be available for selection. But whether he plays or not we will have to see how things go during the week, and I would say that Matt Stevens is touch and go. |
There has been a transformation - you can feel it among the players - but I can hold my hand up and say that is not down to me coaching on the field. You'd be better off asking Michael Foley and Richard Graham about that because they have been in charge, not me. |
There were some fantastic matches between the two sides in the late eighties and into the early nineties. Perhaps not so much with the first team as these tended to be second team matches played on a Friday night, but that did not stop the two sides from going at one another, and I expect that to be the main theme on Saturday evening. We will both have a go at one another within the spirit of the game. |
There will be no excuse for not playing rugby on a pitch as good as this one. Given the playing surface at the Recreation Ground, I am not sure whether there is greater pressure on us playing at home or away. We have a good record against French teams in the Heineken Cup, but the past is no guide to what will happen on Saturday. We are aware of the challenge which faces us. |
This is desperately bas luck for a player who was in form. I feel he would have made the England twenty-two, if not the starting XV. |
This is something that needs to be tried in the courts. This is a huge tragedy. The family continues to suffer, and they'll never recover. I couldn't even fathom the pain that they feel through this whole thing. |
We are sorry to be losing Matt for the rest of the season. We wish him a speedy recovery and hopefully he will be back in time for the start of the new season. |
We lost direction for the first 10 minutes after half-time and let Bristol back into the game. To be fair to them, they took that opportunity and put us on the back foot. |
