Last week I suggested that nothing less than four points would do against Leicester as there was a serious risk of us being bottom of the Premiership pile at Christmas.
As it turned out we only managed three and will, in fact, prop up the festive table on account of an inferior points difference and as much as you try and wrap it up with pretty bows and sparkly tinsel this is clearly not the sort of present that Bears fans were hoping for.
We have one of the biggest stadiums in the league, in excess of ten thousand season ticket holders and a hugely generous Sugar Daddy yet we are languishing at the bottom of the pack and can’t appear to buy a Premiership win let alone be gifted one.
