Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05
As others have alluded to, the club's DNA has altered over the years. I was at the JP Cup final in 1978 and can still remember the attritional Glaws forwards deciding the match. That pack contained such softies as Burton and Fidler. Tigers won the next three finals with their stellar backline that ...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Premiership - Friday 29th March 2024 - KO: 19-45
Be very tempting to play a mix n match side for Leinster game and focus on the Prem. Tough one for the coach. Pick a full strength team. Get hosed. Pick up a couple of injuries. Weakened for Saints game. It's worth noting that Leinster have a number of injuries/injury concerns. It may well be a mix...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Premiership - Friday 29th March 2024 - KO: 19-45
Just watching it back, Dickson was desperate to bin some of our players towards the end, he was far to pally and chatty all game with the Newcastle players in a way he wasn't with ours. Which at the least isn't a good look. We need to find a way to have Shillcock and Pollard in the team together. P...

Re: Next seasons season ticket
I too only received my season ticket renewal email on Wednesday but I did phone the Ticket office and arranged to offset any remaining Covid balance left with the Club and a barrow load of Roaraward points so that reduced my renewal to advantageous terms. Other season ticket holders may also be hold...

Re: New Supporters Forum?
Agreed, it is not only the overdue re-establishment of the Supporters Forum that needs sorting but the Open Forums where supporters can ask about Club developments, players, coaches and the deterioration of the previously enthusiastic Club Communications team. Alas they made Gary the MC redundant a...

Re: Alan Dickens - Tigers lack of attack coach.
There's also a far more high-profile sporting case happening right now with Christian Horner and Red Bull that has been handled very differently. Red Bull made a public announcement that a hearing was taking place, they referred to, "Recent allegations," and they provided a date for when ...

Re: Tigers v Quins (A) - Premiership - Friday 26th January 2024 - KO- 19:45
I feel it is a great shame that Marler is not playing as he readily voices Referees mistakes and with having Tom Foley ( or Fouly as some call is interpretations) that might have been worth a few points! So the Sir is Foley , Assistants Craig Maxwell-Keys & Peter Allen with Andrew Jackson TMO in...

Re: Matt Hampson Calendar 2024
It's not just a case of this year - it's been extremely difficult for the last few years to get the players and it's all been done very last minute. Also, with the changing landscape of what is/isn't deemed acceptable in current society it was decided to not pursue it again this year. Similarly, th...

Re: Nottingham Rugby Club
I would doubt that this match would be hosted at MWWR...........it will cost the club to put it on and in todays climate where they are looking to reduce costs. Tbf if they put it on as a "fundraiser" I wouldn't be surprised if they got a decent attendance. That said I suspect it may eith...

Re: Harry Simmons
For which I apologised further up champ. 4 months isn’t 7 weeks either if you want to be pedantic You didn't apologise. Rather hard to play any earlier when you are signed up until December. I said this I’m sure I’d read 7 months, obviously incorrectly, but the point remains regarding the fan’s fru...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle Falcons (H) - Premiership - Sunday 3rd December 2023 - KO: 3-00pm
And people say the game has gone soft. Seems to me the supporters have gone soft. I remember standing in the pouring rain when we played Richmond. It was that bad the guttering on the old Next stand couldn't cope. I think we thrashed them 9-6.....or similar. A classic. For me I think it was Tigers ...

Re: Atmosphere during games
I know it is not only me observing that several of the Tigers players deliberately avoid the parade of flags held by those youngsters who are so proud to be part of the atmosphere of the game.. Last week Freddie Steward and Dan Cole avoided the flags totally.. I think this shows clear disrespect to ...
