Ford’s heroics continue Sale’s 12-month winning run in the Premiership at home as the Sharks continue to make the Salford Stadium a real fortress.
Bath were involved in one of the Premiership’s most pulsating games last weekend in a West Country thriller against Bristol, but this contest was a tense affair that was more about brute force than flair.
Sale director of rugby Alex Sanderson was delighted to have secured their sixth victory of the season by edging a side that was flying coming into the encounter.
He said: “It’s one of a few times this season where we have had to find a way in the dying moments to win. Sometimes it’s been through our defence, and tonight was our set-piece and kicking game. They are quite a resourceful bunch, and it shows that we have multiple ways in which to take the game by the scruff of the neck and snatch a victory from the jaws of defeat.
