Re: Goneva and Yellow Cards.

Touch judge clearly said it was for no arms in the tackle. Again.

Both were negligible in terms of damage caused, but for the timing.

It's the risk a player runs when flying in with a shoulder.

Re: 2014 - 2015 fixtures now out!!

The top tier of the MK ground is being opened and tested for the first time. We have only played there with a capacity of around 22k. The top tier brings it to nearer 30k, I believe. Much like your fans who like to moan about email content (or lack of) etc, we have our quotient who are at their happ...

Re: Biased commentary

Well I missed that, when was that do you remember? I know there was a brief mention just after the offside pen from May's knock-on, but I didn't notice that. It was after Hartley was incorrectly pinged for tackling the man in the air when it should have been an England penalty for Faletau jumping (...

Re: Saracens game - advice

We parked near the station in the station carpark, as directed on Sarries website, when Saints went down for the semi last year :smt041 A few pubs on the street nearby that were OK, then hopped the free busses to the ground. Decent pint n pie deal at the ground, and good ale bars, eateries and wine ...

Re: NFL blockng - becoming an epidemic?

Northampton have been doing it this season and against us there was at least one penalty they got at a breakdown where Lawes eased Logo out of the way some couldn't support the ball carrier. They also scored some tries in another game where there was blocking to create space Lucky for you guys, Tig...

Re: Ryan Lamb

Time will tell Bill.

Catty and Grayson weren't so bad in their day. Smurf is unproven as a coach, as yet.

Good luck to the kid. On his day, a prodigious talent. On another day, a frustrating liability.

Re: Ryan Lamb

We all need to remember its what happens in May. R Lamb will claim his first Aviva Prem medal with the Tigers as he will get better and better every week when playing behind the real Tigers forwards (not the 2nds/3rds). If Saints had not switched Lamb on and off every week he would have had the con...

Gutted for him. Fantastic player and genuinely nice bloke.

Had the pleasure of him sitting on our table at one of your Director's Experiences during his last lay off.

Re: Hartley Disciplinary hearing!

Doesn't really matter what evidence was offered up. They were always going to back their own, as to do any different would have meant admitting Barnes cocked up a splendid Final. And Barnes won't, and will never offer a different story, as again, it will me admitting he made a snap error of judgemen...

Re: nobby west a disgrace

If Lawes made a tackle rather than an NFL style hit (with token use of arms) Flood wouldn't of hit his head on Cole's knee so either way its was a result of a hit by Courtney Lawes[/quote] Token use of the arms!? Shoulder hit Flood's hip and arms were wrapped fully around his legs. Pretty textbook....

Re: welford road pitch size

Just face facts. Your antiquated little ground wasnt deemed suitable for the RWC, and sensibly, your Club didn't want to spend millions of pounds, it does not have, to host a few pool games, so a few old Crumblies don't have to watch rugby at a different venue.

Re: East Midlands Final - the wanted final!!

Thats because he's a poor ref, seemingly interested in his own self importance, and has ruined a disproportionate amount of games between these 2 clubs in recent years, due to his, and his touch judges' ineptitude. Also fair to say that Tigers fans weren't too enamoured by his selection either. Prov...

Re: East Midlands Final - the wanted final!!

I would reckon these two clubs could bring 40,000 members and followers with them. If the clubs were allocated that number of seats the stadium could be filled in a much more satisfactory way, and could also put together larger coherent transport packages. I'd like to see us taking over the stadium...
