       As a Bath fan (ex-club member) what I feel Bath have done over
       the last 2/3 years since Van Gran arrived is to have invested
       heavily in the Academy programme. We're increasingly less
       reliant on buying up experience and more successful in bringing
       through young players who have bought into the ethos and
       aspiration of Bath Rugby. To be fair, it's what we did
       previously but was lost over the last 15/20 years.

       The team seem totally demotivated
       When Wev came over to where we all sat on Saturday you could see
       it on his face
       Hindsight is a wonderful thing but this season has just been
       planned terribly
       First off we say we are” Building the academy players” yet for
       plenty of the Prem cup games we run out well established
       players, and we know how well that went
       We are bound to hear the usual “ We are playing for our place in
       Champions cup” line rolled out again soon, when let’s be honest
       it’s a done deal, I’ll be really surprised if we use the
       opportunity to run out plenty of youngsters and start trying to
       build a team, and no doubt will hear next season “ We building
       the academy players” & “ These things take time” lines again
