Re: Taking points when they are on offer

We don't seem to have the patience to engineer a drop-goal when needed in the dying moments of games - another example being the Heineken Quarter-Final at the Walkers a few seasons ago, against a resolute Bath defence. You mean when in the dying moments of the game when we were shaping up for quite...

Re: Billy must play against Treviso

Smurph, My recollection of our respective kicker's ability is Billy missing 3 points straight in front of the posts against Perpignan at home which would have won us the game, and that is ignoring the other harder kicks he missed. Billy will be a great player in the future but at the moment he is s...

Re: How to treat a young star - Richard Cockerill

An awful lot of posts.. And I have posted this before What is particularly relevant is that, about this time last year, Youngs was going nowhere... It took a certain person to advise RC that -If he didnt pick Ben pronto, he was off to Saints. The same might apply to Twelvetrees, but as yet I havent...

Leicester take on Northampton this weekend and sitting pretty on top of the Aviva Premiership after that win at Exeter. Always feisty affairs and this should be no different. What a treat.
Bring it... here? Bring it... now? Bring it...

Ok there's a few foreigners involved but that about the norm these days.
Only it was actually a Warwickshire regiment... even back then midlanders were required to beat the saffas. :smt002

Last season the same fixture against Clermont didn't sell out. Back then it was even more of a must win situation.

Re: Euan Murray - Mutual contract termination

Another career destroyed by tv demanding games be played on a Sunday What a load of bull. His career (if it's over) was destroyed by his decision and his decision alone.

Re: Lions Squad: 2001 vs 2005 vs 2009

Shaw could be another one. Right, because when choosing a successor to an ageing and injury prone captain a sensible choice is to pick a 37 year old injury prone player who is not good enough for the starting line up and is begging his club to actually offer him a contract for next season so he has...
