Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
Excellent post GB72. As with all things it’s someone being brave enough to make the first step to start asking the important questions. I wonder just how in favour the welsh regions, and their fans are of South African inclusion in the URC, the Scots also for that matter. In terms of tv figures it ...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
An English and Welsh league does seem the most attractive option (for anyone that hates the idea of franchises, or RFU control, or zombie clubs being allowed to cast off their debts and return). It's not obvious that the economics would work though. Would broadcasters be willing to pay more than th...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
In reality I’m sure not many are in favour of a 10 team league. The issue is that championship clubs including Ealing, who have just released 25 players, have shown a complete lack of readiness to move up to the premiership both on and off the field. IMO the only other option would be an English an...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
If things are that bad why do we also take every opportunity to say we're going to spend the full salary cap? Things should be addressed on their merits. For season ticket holders this offers limited benefits over a season ticket alone (a new shirt worth c.£75, for the middle level members a women'...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
People do seem to be missing my point, I have expressed concerns about the future. I applaud the club for seeking new revenue streams. I take issue with those that say this is a plan to bring payments from fans who are unable to attend matches. In the main it is a plan to obtain yet more money from...

Re: Hotel Brooklyn now Voco
I noticed at the last match that what was the Brooklyn Hotel has now been reposted and branded as "VOCO". Does anyone have any insight into what has happened and if it has any implications for Tigers future and current revenue stream? No idea on implications but the hotel has been acquire...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
The reality is that the club needs money. The cracks were papered over last year by the payments received for Steve and his team. This year we will not have that, we have less TV money coming in, the deal for European matches has not been agreed and so further potential loss there, the operating co...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
There is no ticket allocation for general away matches. The limited allocation I refer to is only for finals and semi finals. The past system has been along the lines of season ticket holders, a single ticket, then members, then one plus one a d eventually the general public of course many regular ...

Re: Not a new kit Launch.... Tigers Together membership
Out of interest, and this is not having a pop at anyone, I am just interested. How often do we have an allocation that is taken up solely by season ticket holders. Is it a regular thing or does our allocation often end up passing down to the general fan base. A wider question could be if there are ...

Re: Challenge Cup Final: Gloucester v Sharks
massive drop in revenue for the club if playing in the junior competition - so lets all be sharks this week !!! Is it though? I’m not sure that the champions cup is very lucrative and the travelling makes it costly to take 35 odd staff overseas. Not sure that we know either way yet. When I last saw...
