Rugby: Ulster bid to keep wisdom of Solomons

ULSTER chief executive Michael Reid sat down with coach Alan Solomons last night in an attempt to finally thrash out an extension to his contract.

It has been widely speculated that Solomons could move on when his contract expires on May 31 following a three-year stint at Ravenhill.

Zurich Premiership side Northampton are believed to be eager to bring Solomons to Franklins Gardens after Operations Director John Steele paid a fleeting visit to Belfast last week.
