The Saints

The Saints are the Northampton rugby team. Having gone through some rough patches, including most recently relegation during the 2007/2008 season (they completed the year in National Division 1 with an unprecedented 35 wins from 35 games), they have rapidly come back through the combined powers of Jim Mallinder, Dorian West and Paul Grayson, alongside a strong combination of youth and experience.

Saints vs Not Nots

It's cold. In fact that's an understatement. The snow may not have arrived but I have more layers on than at any other time this season.

Big game tonight. Last week we went top of the league. Who did we knock off the top spot. London Irish. So they will be desparate to get that back again. If they fail then we start to see daylight between first and second for the first time this season.

Traditionally this has been a close game. Last season we won, but only in extra time with a try in the last play of the game. Something that did not go well with Delon Armitage who had a go at the ref. The same Delon who was released by Jonni from the England squad this week so he'll be out there.

Too close to call.
