Bordeaux-Begles set up an Investec Champions Cup final against Northampton as they derailed holders Toulouse in a pulsating match between France's top two sides.

"Lots of people wrote us off and we understood we were underdogs but the belief within the group was outstanding," Dowson told BBC Radio Northampton.

The hosts in Dublin had only conceded seven tries in reaching the semi-finals but Northampton crossed for five on the day, with Henry Pollock and James Ramm also scoring.

Greencore has also been putting on additional shifts at its dedicated M&S factory in Northampton, putting more lorries on the road, and is sending more food to stores than they did over Christmas.

Tommy Freeman, who plays alongside Pollock for England and Northampton, smiles at the inevitable question.
