Wing confident Bath can sort out their scrum and get their season buzzing by giving Wasps a torrid time in the European Champions CupIf,in times of crisis, everyone looks to the most experienced of their number, and all eyes at Bath these days are turning to Matt Banahan. This is his 10th season at the club; he recently racked up his 200th appearance; and it just so happens this is no crisis as far as the wing is concerned. “I’ve been in worse positions than this,” he says. “We’ve been in 11th place at Christmas before and ended up in fourth.”That is a reference to their abominable start to the 2009-10 campaign, when they won one of out of 10 Premiership games. Then Christmas came, and Bath won 11 of their remaining 12 to terminate up in the play-offs. By that standard,their present tally, which they will acquire into Christmas, and of two wins from six for ninth place seems really quite respectable.
