BBS was founded by Albert Francis Moon in 1933 as a general builders and agricultural merchants based out of a five-story building on Victoria Street in central Bristol, Albert would later go on to become the Lord Mayor of Bristol in 1937. A line-out drive and maul, finished off by Jacques du Toit, put the home side ahead after the break but Northampton retook the lead after losing Naiyaravoro to the sin-bin - James Grayson's dummy getting him over the try-line. A Rhys Preistland penalty on his farewell appearance had Bath 25-24 up but they struggled to kill the game, with Tom Doughty's score scrubbed off for an off-the-ball infringement.

This small frustration shows how far we have come. To even consider us winning such awards five years ago would be way off the mark. I thank everyone for the support and commitment towards BBS & Riverside bathrooms! Northampton: Freeman; Collins, Dingwall, Hutchinson, Naiyaravoro; Grayson, Mitchell; Waller, Haywood, Hill, Coles, Moon, Lawes, Ludlam (capt), Wood.That second half we just couldn't hold the ball for long enough periods of time to exert a physical dominance - we made a few too many mistakes and gave up a few too many penalties to allow them to slow the game down to their level." Taqele Naiyaravoro scored two tries and set up a third to give the visitors a 19-15 half-time advantage. We came third in the Plumbing and Heating Merchant of the Year, losing out to two of the Nationals (and we all know we're better than them locally 😉). We also came second in the Small Merchant of the Year Award, losing out to fellow Independent BEERS TIMBER & BUILDING SUPPLIES LIMITED in Liverpool - well done to them 👏 Bath: De Glanville; Watson, Joseph, Ojomoh, Cokanasiga; Priestland, B Spencer; Obano, Du Toit, Judge, McNally, Ewels (capt), Reid, Underhill, Faletau. It's five points at home, European qualification and a magnificent way to say goodbye to some great servants to the club in front of our supporters.

They were cheered on by a vocal returning crowd but winger Naiyaravoro stole the first-half show for Saints, going over from Courtney Lawes' pass, releasing Rory Hutchinson to score and then pouncing on the right after a patient move. But the pressure kept coming, with Saints again reduced to 14 men when Ehren Painter was yellow-carded, and Bayliss broke clear for a definitive fourth try after the ball went loose. Bath had four tries ruled out but were patient and a late breakaway score from Josh Bayliss secured a five-point win.

Branch Contacts

The team, the family ethos, and the closeness we show daily to each other and each customer is what makes us so unique. I am disappointed not to win an award as our customers and staff deserved to win something. Average games of rugby come down to critical moments and I thought we were on the wrong end of a couple of critical decisions that in the end might have made a difference.
