Die Macht » That made it really difficult to build a team again.

French giants Toulon inflicted a 13th straight top-flight European defeat on Sale Sharks, winning 15-5 at the AJ Bell Stadium in the Champions Cup.Toulon, European kings in 2013, 2014 and 2015, responded well to last weekends loss to reigning champions Saracens when they relinquished their unbeaten home record in the Champions Cup.Sale, beaten by Scarlets on the opening weekend, battled bravely but were not able to recover from going 15-0 down in the first 11 minutes.Toulon roared ahead as tries from Charles Ollivon and Leigh Halfpenny made the most of a man advantage after Magnus Lund was sin-binned.Paolo Odogwu pulled a try back on 32 minutes when Sale had a man over with Toulon captain Duane Vermeulen yellow-carded, but the Sharks trailed 15-5 at the break.Odogwu was one of the seven Sale players who got stuck in a lift last weekend, the footage of which has been an internet sensation this week.His score gave the Sharks the initial lift they needed but, despite a period of intense second-half pressure, the score remained the same.The teams had met just twice before, in the 2012/13 European Cup pool stage, with the Top 14 side coming out on top in both games. Toulons 62-0 win in the second is their biggest in the competition as well as Sales heaviest defeat in the tournament.A minutes silence for Munster head coach Anthony Foley, whose funeral took place earlier on Friday, was impeccably observed just ahead of kick-off.Sale suffered an early blow when recalled flanker Lund was sin-binned for a late, no arms, tackle on Juan Fernandez Lobbe, who had just turned his back after passing. Halfpenny put Toulon 3-0 up with the resulting penalty from a central position, albeit via the left upright.The visitors made their man advantage count with tries from flanker Ollivon, who barged over all to easily in a central position, and Halfpenny, who went over in the left corner after a cross-field kick. The full-back converted the first score but was narrowly wide with the second.The Sharks resisted another attack and then gained a man advantage when Vermeulen was yellow-carded for tripping Sam James after the fly-half kicked through.Sales impetus grew and they pulled a try back when wing Odogwu raced over in the left corner. Will Addison missed the conversion. The hosts threatened again before the break yet without adding to that try.Sale resisted early second-half pressure but struggled to get out of their territory. They were fortunate that the normally reliable Halfpenny was wide with a penalty attempt from distance.When they finally entered Toulons half, Addison squandered a straightforward penalty, his kick coming back off the right post.The stadium announcer repeatedly tried to get a larger-than-normal crowd of 9,402 behind the hosts and it seemed to do the trick as they enjoyed a period of concerted pressure.Sale kicked three penalties to the corner but each time failed to register a score as Toulons defence proved too strong.

There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me.

Former Hibernian and Kilmarnock striker Nish took charge of the Scottish League 1 side in the summer after signing as a player in January 2015. The club suffered a second straight relegation at the weekend when they lost 2-1 on aggregate to Queens Park in the League 1 play-off semi-final. On Thursday the club released a statement announcing Nish would not be offered a new contract after his deal expired at the end of the season.Despite relegation to Scotlands fourth tier, Nish told Sky Sports News HQ he was surprised by the decision as he had been assured he would be at Central Park regardless of where the club finished this season. Colin Nish holds off current Rangers assistant manager David Weir in a match in 2011 He said: Whether we were relegated or not I was told Id be there and I think at that time we were bottom of the league. We went on a good run and just missed out on staying up automatically.Thats why Im disappointed. Ive been involved in football for a long time and I know these things dont make much of a difference until something is signed.I was never in the position where I was 100 per cent sure Id be there, but at the same time I thank Cowdenbeath for the opportunity. Ive learned a lot this year which will hopefully hold me in good stead for the future.With limited resources, the former Hartlepool forward believes he did the best job possible and would love another go at management in the near future. Rangers 5-1 Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup fourth round Im proud of myself because I feel that I did a good job based on the budget that I had, which is all I can go by, he said.Nish continued: I want to do something in football, thats my passion and thats what I enjoy doing. Ive certainly not lost any confidence. If anything IIve gained confidence in my managerial capabilities.ddddddddddddIve learned a lot this year, probably more than I did in my playing career in terms of different things about being a manager. I will definitely come back stronger given the opportunity.The beginning of the season was really tough. I didnt have a team basically. Then I built a team I felt was capable of challenging for the play-offs going up the way.In January we lost a couple of players I signed on loan at the start, but we could only get them until January and they unfortunately left. That made it really difficult to build a team again. I felt like I nearly got there but there wasnt enough time to do it at the end of the season.I dont see any benefits from Cowdenbeath not keeping me on as a manager. I dont see whats going to change for them next year with a different manager. I think I proved this year that I was capable of building a team on a small budget. Unfortunately I lost that in January but I did prove that I can do it. Colin Nish reacts after Cowdenbeath lost to Rangers in the Scottish Cup Nish took Cowdenbeath to the Scottish Cup fourth round this year, where they were drawn against a resurgent Rangers at Ibrox. The tie was subsequently chosen to be live on Sky Sports, but Nish says the occasion was more of a hindrance than a highlight of his managerial career.He said: It was a distraction we didnt need really. And at the time we were going quite well and it was around that time we lost a lot of our players so that was the start of a difficult couple of months.The money the club received didnt do me any good in the long run because in January its hard to sign players so the money will probably be best used now.So I never got any benefit out of that. Im not saying that the club wouldnt have given me any money to strengthen. But hopefully that money benefits the new manager and helps the club bounce back up.
