Spot on Baggy. He can say what he likes about having the best band in the league, the best hog roast van and the least blocked traps but he cannot hide from the fact that the professional team set up is an omnishitfest on his departure from his tenure: depleted weak squad struggling field a 23 to scrape into top half of the league, unproven and unanswered coaching ticket, gaps in the back room staff, results poor, dwindling attendance, media backlash.

For the draw later, basically after the Pot 3 sides have allocated to groups - Ulster will have 3 options - the groups with Edinburgh, Scarlets and Glasgow.
Hoping for Newcastle as the English side - new trip. A return to Exeter would be fun also. Of the 5 French sides Ulster could draw - (Lyon, Castres, Toulouse, Racing 92 and Montpellier) - from a personal point of view - have only been to Montpellier and a return to there would be good fun. Lyon and Racing 92 have never faced Ulster in the H Cup.
