London Welsh boss Lyn Jones urges supporters to back the club in their fight against relegation from the Aviva Premiership.

London Welsh boss Lyn Jones has urged supporters to back the club as they attempt to remain in the Aviva Premiership this season.

The 15-14 defeat to Gloucester Rugby at the weekend has left the club five points adrift at the bottom of the table, but Jones has insisted that they can still survive.

"I want to preach to the people of Oxford to come and support us. If people come out to support us it really does give the boys an edge. We've got two home games and we're confident we can win both," he told BBC Sport.

"We've got two home games, finishing off with Worcester on 4 May, and we've found in the last month that when we've been on the road the away support has been a factor. We want that in Oxford. We've got two home games and we're confident we can win both."

Saracens currently top the table with 63 points.
