Sean Maitland says the first ten minutes will be crucial
Sean Maitland says a quick start is crucial to Glasgow's hopes in today's European Rugby Champions Cup game against Montpellier.

Sean told the Scotsman: “I was talking to Rory Best after our recent PRO12 game at Ulster and I asked him how he had found it last season when Ulster had Montpellier in their Heineken Cup group and he had some very interesting words on that.

“Rory had said the key for Ulster was that they had got on top early, got a couple of quick tries and really taken the energy out of the crowd and given Montpellier nothing to work with.

“Particularly he’d made the point that the first ten minutes were crucial and we know that we are going to have to be really resolute early on. So if you can turn the crowd on Montpellier it can become a weakness for them rather than a strength."
