Rating Bristol's survival chances

Bristol have often been a yo-yo club of the top flight, but tonight's win may have just stopped that trend.

The Bears now are up to 9th and sit 13 points clear of Newcastle Falcons. A win tonight was massive for the Bears and it might just be enough to secure survival.

Only 4 teams have been relegated with more than 30 points:

Harlequins = 38 pts (2005)

Bristol = 33 pts (2003)

Northampton = 32 pts (2007)

Newcastle = 32 pts (2012)

With 7 games still to play, you'd be confident in putting your money on Bristol to stay up.
