If you read you the round ball fans forum they are bemoaning the same thing in regard of fan noise and coming up with all sorts of reasons why - with no real conclusion.
They do seem to think it's a Leicester thing but I suspect it's not.

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00
After all the vitriol posted by certain keyboard warriors towards the officials, I’ve just watched the game on tv to see what I missed live. I can only offer two instances where they got it wrong and it materially affected the game. The first was when Cronin flew into a ruck almost from the Bristol...

Yeah, kind of my point. It was a marginal call, that went our way.

Lot of talk about the officials and some of their decisions. We were lucky they disallowed the Oghre try - looked a flat pass to me.

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00
Regrettably I have seen nothing recently to suggest that under this coach we will improve. Witness the same comments by supporters after every game. I don't blame the players. The way they play is an indication of how they are being coached - not very well from what I can see. I really think some p...

I agree that there are a number of reasons we should go full bore for this one.
If by the time we play Sharks we are out of top 4 but safely in Champions Cup then let's focus on blooding people for next season.

Also bearing in mind that for all the pre-game optimism in this thread on the McKeller thread his sacking is being openly discussed and I suspect will only intensify if we get a spanking from Saints and/or don't make top 4. Such is the fickle nature of sports fans.

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05
Bookies have Saints at long odds on to win (range 4/9 to 2/7). On handicap you can get Tigers +9 with odds of 10/11 so if you think we have a decent chance fill your boots. Saints at 3/10 and Tigers at 5/2 means bookies have 35% chance Tigers win, 65% chance Saints win. That's not long odds at all....

Re: Championship Clubs Promotion
One thing is for sure the RFU/Premiership aren't helping/driving it and until they do I don't see much changing.

Re: Championship Clubs Promotion
If the criteria is budget, infrastructure, fan base rather than on the field performance than you are talking about US-style franchising which everyone seems to be against.

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05
Worth pointing out that Saints have not beaten us in a league match at Franklin's Gardens since before the pandemic. In fact I think every visit since the pandemic has coincided with their annual fire drill... There is a different sort of pressure on them as table toppers at home to "finally&q...

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05
Their flakiness came from lack of defence and poor scrum both of which they appear to have fixed. Yep Not sure why 1 result would make any difference to Mckellar career for most people In the one sense this is a game we would expect to lose given they are top of the league and on a high - and we ha...

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05
Saints were a real flakey team in recent seasons. Not so now. We are the ones looking flakey. I have hope but my head says this is going to be difficult. If we do put in a performance and somehow win it, it would be fun obviously but also potentially transformative for our season and for McKellar's ...
