Well, I don’t know, but it seems there is a little bit of luck going Ulster’s way this weekend. OK, Bath didn’t do us any favours yesterday but since the match finished every result seemed to go our way to give us what is, in my opinion, our best chance to reach the final – obviously leaving aside the fact that we didn’t get a home quarter final.
Northampton away, more than likely in Milton Keynes is as good as we could have hoped for. I certainly didn’t fancy our chances if we had to travel to Toulouse or Dublin and if I had to pick one team where we stood a fair chance it would be Northampton. Their big old pack has stood them in good stead over the winter months, but come early April, and a bit of sun, Ulster may well be able to maximise the effectiveness of our silky backs.
The tantalising reward for a win is a home semi-final against Toulon or Perpignan . . .
