Monkey’s off Bedford’s back

BLUES coach Martin Hynes was delighted to see his side finally win away from home as they defeated Moseley 24-15 on Saturday, writes James Heneghan.

Hynes said: “We’re dead pleased with that. It’s a really hard place to come and play rugby and fair play to Moseley because every time we come they put in an 80-minutes performance.

“They’re a dogged, hard side, so I’m really pleased with how it went.

“Everyone keeps reminding us about our away form so it’s a little bit worrying. We did target this as an away win just because of the fact we haven’t won since November.

“It’s a bit disappointing that our away form has been so poor because we’ve lost so many on the bounce away, which isn’t good. But we’ve got that monkey off our back now and that’s important.

“It’s a well deserved win today.”

Luke Baldwin was the standout performer for the Blues – scoring twice – and Hynes was full of praise for the young scrum-half, adding: “Luke’s a smashing lad.

“It’s always good when we get some youthful enthusiasm in the side like he has and obviously there are little bits he needs to work on but we’re blessed in that department because we have a lot of good scrum-halves at the club.

“It’s very disappointing to concede straight after scoring.

“That’s the bit when Mike Rayer has a heart attack a little bit, because it’s just when you need to control the game and force a little bit of pressure on to the opposition.

“It’s not what we intend to do at all, but it’s just a lack in concentration and we allow them back in.

“The important thing is that they’re giving everything they’ve got – they keep emptying the tank every week so hopefully the results will keep coming. We’re looking forward to Nottingham this week because we know they’ll bring down a well-prepared side. They’re a good side so we’ll have to stay focused.”
