Gutted. Absolutely gutted. Didn’t have the words last night so just spent a while reading everyone else’s messages about their fond memories. Angry, but just so sad that such a special club is gone. 125 yrs, should’ve been a year of celebration. And it didn’t have to end this way

Safe to say I enjoyed my day at work today 😃 @btsportrugby.
We are, as you all know, strictly neutral here @btsportrugby. But I hope we can forgive @topsy_ojo this. It’s been a while and the Prem continues to dish up the unexpected.

And he played 80 mins! Definitely got my vote on his 50th 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.
Probably fitting that @topsy_ojo got MOTM today, but there surely can't have been another occasion in history where a tighthead prop scored a hat trick and didn't get! Well played @omdhoskins, hope they all signed the match ball for you. #harsh #PropStar #MeatPie
