Leicester Tigers

The discipline committee has suspended Vunipola for a dangerous tackle in the game against Newcastle. The suspension is 3 matches, Bath on Saturday followed by Irish in the cup on Monday. How can they include the Irish game when he would never be playing in it. On that basis they could include any a...

Has anyone heard whether the club is arranging travel to Claremont in January.
Unfortunately John Griffiths, who brilliantly organised trips all over France and Italy, has retired, but I heard last year that the club were going to arrange these trips from this season.
any news?

Many thanks John for all the years you have organised trips to the European games. Always enjoyed the coach trips, and especially the train trips to Toulon. Not sure we will.be able to afford European trips if tigers are the organisers. Have to look at flights and hotels as soon as the fixtures are ...

I tend to be a cynic regarding what happens at tigers nowadays. First Underwood was asked to leave and now Ben Kay, who with any knowledge is there to look at and question what happens on the playing side of the club. It looks to me that anyone who dares to question Borthwick is shown the door in sh...

Having just had chaos in the football world regarding the European super league, rugby feels that ring fencing the premiership is justified by the owners club. The argument that it protects the investment by a select few owners is no different to the greed shown by the football elite to the detrimen...

My last post has strangely disappeared. I put forward the view that it’s about time for a clear out at the top of the board and a introduction of someone who will put a lot of money into the club, not hotels. Why have Boris, Rory, and now Geordan been shown the door. What is the background to all th...

There was a fans forum this month where the new catering was discussed. I have not seen any comments regarding the move to a cashless stadium and the effect that this will have on the thousands of fans who do not have or use cashless credit cards. I know that a number of older fans round me on the t...

In addition, there were great shots of John the Griff and Louise, from the away supporters club on the TV feed

If the Italian Commentary team were having a bad time with the names, I, being a sad old *** can remember how Tudor Thomas used to really struggle with any non-uk names, to our great amusement!!

I think it was about 2 weeks ago that Radio Leicester were saying that the fixtures for the European Cup were about to be announced.

Since then there has been a stunning silence.

Does anybody know when the draws will be made so we can arrange travel to Paris, Limerick, and Glasgow ??

This smacks of the southern hemisphere objecting to a skill that they are not capable of, or unwilling to use. If a player passes the ball back in a maul and stays at the front, surely he is obstructing the opposition getting to the ball/player? Surely the IRB law makers should have looked more clos...

Brianf - Whilst I agree that Bologna is a beautiful city, we found the influx of Romanian beggars and thieves to be a real pain. Had my pockets picked on a Sunday morning walk in the city last time we played at Monza. Stopped in Parma the year we played Viadana in a village 10 miles from Parma. Coac...

Has there been an announcement of when the draw will take place for the round matches? As usual, the travelling fans have been ignored - we need to book tavel arrangements for the Italy game! JG will, I assume, be arranging trips to both Limerick and Paris, providing a fantastic service to the suppo...

The move of Mele to Toulouse for next season was announced by Tigers on Radio Leicester today (with a comment that Tigers had signed a southern hemisphere scrum half) What has happened here? Mele has been ignored for the second half of the season, (Harrison suddenly became the shining light after be...

I commented on the Saturday fixtures post regarding the attendances this year, based on how it felt at the ground, and the empty seats in the CAT stand and the clubhouse seating. I have just looked at the average attendance figures for League & European cup games compared to last season. In the ...
