Opposition view: No magic formula for Harlequins after defeat at Saints
Senior coach Jason Gilmore admitted there is ‘no magic formula’ for Harlequins after they were hammered 66-21 by Saints on Saturday evening.
Quins had gone ahead early on at cinch Stadium at Franklin’s Gardens, but they eventually shipped 10 tries as they suffered another heavy Gallagher PREM defeat.
And when asked about the frustrations of the Quins fans, Gilmore said: “I can definitely sympathise. We’re fighting it seven days a week.
"If you keep copping those defeats, it’s not going to be sustainable. That’s pretty obvious.
“It’s not just going to turn around overnight and we’ve got to be a clear as a club over what we need to do to make sure we’re winning big games more consistently.
“We are where we are at the moment, we understand that.
"There’s no magic formula to it, we’ve just got to make sure we keep stepping forward and hopefully get some bodies back on the field because the injuries are magnifying things.
“You’re definitely going to lose confidence, there’s no hiding from that.
"We’re clear on what we want to go after.”
