Re: Doom and Gloom

On a slightly more positive note Exeter are thrashing Glos so by the end of the day hopefully our top 8 (makes me shudder to have such low expectations) will be confirmed and our place in the Champions Cup 2025. At least we shouldn't finish outside the top 8 if it continues this way...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Bristol fans seem to be viewing it differently... their forum is talking about the confidence to stick with the strategy in adversity, about their resilience, about their fitness levels, about their ability to win the last 14mins of the game 21-0. Of course they will see it like that. Same narrativ...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

All I can do today to reflect on the season, and particularly yesterday, is quote Charles Dickens...it is as if he was there in the crowd: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch...

Re: Doom and Gloom

Some people are very quick to say how bad we are but for me it is fine margins and poor discipline. We have narrowly lost numerous games this season that easily could have gone either way. Win even just a few of those and we are top 4. I often read about how clueless we are and how bad our attacking...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Away from our performance, what Bristol are doing is nothing short of revolutionary in the current English game. Pretty much every other DoR in the land has their team box kicking between their try line and the 10m. Informed by data, so we're told. 30 kicks in 30mins in Bath v Sarries? Bristol were...

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’m sorry but how can...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

The replacements today just added nothing for me. You can blame Whiteley all you want but it was obviously the instructions he’d got. So don’t blame the player. I think he probably slices the kick. If it goes deep into the Bristol 22 with Steward in pursuit then it's an aerial battle and Bristol ca...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Why did we re sign whitely? I would love to know if anyone can come up with 1 good reason. Why is Carley a ref at this level? I give up on watching this dross. I have been a Tigers supporter for 60 years but this year may well be my last :smt013 Some on here think he is brilliant and he is demonstr...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Not clinical, poor discipline, lack of leadership when Montoya isn’t on the pitch. Carley has constantly shown he is not a prem ref just like the genius in the van. The main thing is Tigers could have taken the game away from the officials and Briatol but we don’t get the job done. Big season for D...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Another defeat blamed on the referee by lots of posters on here, ridiculous, the players lost the game, we as a team are plainly not good enough, please stop blaming the ref it’s becoming embarrassing. I agree BigDan.. it’s not Carley’s fault, we threw that away once again. I do wonder though if wi...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

15 on the park and we win with a TBP.... Soooo frustrating and disappointing Which could be applied to most games I have watched lately.. weren’t we down to 13 at one point in the PRC Final? Last 3 prem games we have had 7 yellow cards and 2 red cards (although one red was for 2 yellows). This is u...

I am so fuming


How people think Van Wyk is better than Nicky Smith I don’t know, and we are seriously going to need a proper Cole replacement marked down
Smith is a big step up. As Edwards would be over Whiteley.. sadly that ship has sailed

Why did we re sign whitely? I would love to know if anyone can come up with 1 good reason. Why is Carley a ref at this level? I find myself sitting here asking the 2 same questions! And why do we kick the ball back to a very dangerous attacking team with 2 minutes to go when we are a player down!?
