Former Newcastle boss Gary Gold has confirmed he will make a swift return to the Aviva Premiership as Bath's new director of rugby.
Gold, who completed a four-year stint as an assistant coach with South Africa at the recent Rugby World Cup, parted company with the Falcons at the weekend having spent the last four months trying to keep them in the Premiership. The 44-year-old also revealed that he has been talking to Bath for several months and is now poised to be officially unveiled as the replacement for Sir Ian McGeechan who left The Rec at the end of the season.

Epic LOL. That'll go down as well at Bath as Alex Ferguson at Liverpool.

Rumour has it Toby Booth will be the backs coach. Double LOL.

It will take more than that to beat Young+Turner at the Wasps.

That's not a bad coaching set up at all, to be honest.
Will be interesting to see what Bath are like next season with that lot pulling the strings.

I thought Brad Davis was a defence coach as well?
