Glasgow fans, we asked for your views after your side were comfortably dumped out of the URC last four by Leinster.
Here's what some of you had to say:
Robert: Having played most of the season to get into a play-off place, the drop off in form, Stormers aside, is a worry. Quality players leaving and uncertainty about Franco Smith himself doesn't fill supporters with a lot of optimism. The younger players have been great but can't be expected to produce on a regular basis against top internationals. Surely the ambition at Warriors is to build on last year's success? Season ticket sales will reflect any lack of ambition on part of the SRU.
Gus: Poor display tackling was awful. Hastings and Horne didn't gel. Can't see many of them playing for the Lions. Let themselves down.
Graeme: When Leinster are on it they are very difficult for anyone to beat. Still a really good defence of the URC by the Warriors. Big decision for the SRU this summer is what to do about Franco, personally I would love to see him in charge of the national side.
Keith: A lot of very good Glasgow players missing. However, that is not an excuse. Leinster were better on the day. Still proud of Glasgow despite the result.
Hopey: Not a great day at the office, we lacked the puff up front to get parity and our main route forward, the kick to compete, was nullified by the Leinster back three. We kicked away the possession we had. Really disappointing and surprising we did not have another plan. Leinster won and Glasgow need to find another way to compete with them. I do not see a quick fix unless we address the lack of grunt up front. Parity is all we needed, then let the backs do their stuff. Just don't kick the ball away.
Andrew: This result for us was the consequence of a sequence of injuries that left the Warriors very exposed. I also felt once the rain came on we lost heart. This was a development much more to Leinster's liking than ours. Still, we could have made a better fist of it than we did, but on the plus side a number of our younger players have been baptised and that can't be bad.
