Ricky Pellow says Exeter Chiefs will look to attack from the outset when they face rivals Bath in Sunday's LV= Cup battle at the Recreation Ground (1pm).

A 19-5 win over holders Harlequins - courtesy of a Sireli Naqelevuki try and 14 points from the boot of Ceri Sweeney - gave the Chiefs the ideal start to their domestic cup campaign at Sandy Park a week ago.

It's been an incredibly torrid time for The Editors. For any band, losing such an incredible talent as Chris Urbanowicz is a potentially fatal blow, but for Tom, Russell and Ed, through losing their lead guitarist they also lost an incredibly close friend.

I wanted to find out how the band was coping with the change from 4 piece to 5 piece and what's...
