AFTER a weekend off with no game, we go to Ulster tomorrow to play a team who are fighting for the title.

Their ground, Ravenhill, is probably the most intimidating place to play in the Magners League as they always have a large and noisy crowd.

We will need to block it out if we are to get what would be a great victory tomorrow night.

We have been on a good run of form recently with wins over Leinster and Connacht in recent weeks, but we need to keep it going to ensure we finish as far as possible up the league.

advertisementWe're fully focused on the tasks ahead to finish our season in strong fashion and take us into next year.

I was at the West of Scotland v Glasgow Hawks club cup game last weekend and really enjoyed it, not just because I have played with a lot of the guys on the pitch in the past, but that did add to the excitement.

West put on a really good day at their ground, Burnbrae, and the support that was shown to them was superb, especially from the lads at the top of the stand.

Hawks were run close, but came away with a 19-17 victory, so I wish them all the best and hope they go to Murrayfield next weekend (May 5) and bring the cup back to Glasgow.

There is a good feeling at the Glasgow Warriors at the moment and I think that extends to our supporters as well.

I am really enjoying my rugby here and am proud to be playing for and captaining Glasgow.

I hope that the club can go from strength to strength in the future and continue the progress we've seen this year.

We only have one more home game left, tomorrow week against the Ospreys, and it would be great to get the biggest crowd of our season along to cheer us on.

It would also give a fitting send-off to players like Jon Petrie and Graeme Beveridge, who have given an enormous amount to Glasgow over many seasons as well as the rest of the guys that are moving on to new challenges.

Go to our website to buy your ticket today www.glasgowwarriors.org and see you at Hughenden on May 4.
