Ulster moved to the top of the PRO12 with a close, but convincing, win against Glasgow on a wet and windy Friday evening at Scotstoun.  

We’d predicted an Ulster win, though they would make hard work of it, and that’s pretty much how it turned out, the only additional point of note being the poor standard of refereeing which did neither side any favours, somewhat taking away from the continuity of the match in what ended up as difficult enough conditions. 

As we sat in the rain lashed stand, and Jared Payne crossed for Ulster’s first disallowed try, I turned to the crowd around and stated that Ulster would win this by 30 points such was their early dominance. Apart from whipping up the locals into a flurry of antipathy . . .
