 BRISTOL 8-50 NEWCASTLE                 
 Newcastle stormed to the top of the    
 Allied Dunbar Premiership on Saturday  
 bz crushing bottom club Bristol.       
                                        
 The Falcons' flowing back division ran 
 in seven of the visitors' eight tries, 
 sparing the blushes of player-coach Rob
 Andrew who missed seven kicks at goal. 
                                        
 Needing a 21-point winning margin to   
 replace Saracens at the top, Newcastle 
 accomplished their task thanks to a    
 four-try flurry in the last six min4tes
 as demoralised Bristol capitulated.

 affair at McDiarmid Park.              
                                        
 Though Celtic enjoyed the lionsW shari 
 of the possession, genuine chances wita
 relatively few and far between, and for
