Re: Tigers v Bath

I always like your reasoned polite posts Bowden Tiger but you really can't just hope for the best all the time and think that will work. "The times they are a changing" Top performing players run out onto the pitch not just believing that they can win but that they will definitely win. Th...

I mean he is 34 in Jan and will be 35 next year a lot of props tend to lower their game time at such an age as is.
And to think I once thought that you had some insight into the club.

Re: Simon Cohen's well chosen words ..............again

Leicester city centre is short on hotel rooms at peak periods but do not for a moment think that they will be filled with Tigers fans if they slip down the table. Local fans may attend matches but travelling supporters will not pay the extra expense to see a losing team. Spare me the I am a lone su...

Re: Blaming the right person?

When Mauger's appointment was announced the point was made at the time that was he appointed because he was an outstanding coach, because he was ex-Tigers or both? His results in New Zealand didn't inspire confidence and we had a season of erratic performances, leaky defensive structures and a capa...

Re: Is it not obvious....

Once upon a time we played Newport Gwent dragons. Aled Brew was in his pomp on the wing. We won, but Dragons backs ATT were exceptional, good systems, good heads-up play. I said to Mrs G 'if we had our forwards and their backs we could walk the AP'. I have not seen other than brief glimpses of that...

Re: Simon Cohen's well chosen words ..............again

Silverware vs Sustainability, it's an interesting question to try and answer. I don't believe that there is any doubt that our success over the last 20 years has led to increasing crowds, ground improvements etc. We have been able to increase our income from sponsorship, but for some reason we have...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread

It would keep our Newcastle and Worcester production line going nicely though! :smt001 Personally I agree though. I can't see him joining us until he could see himself as 1st or 2nd choice LH, which would be unlikely unless Marcos retires or takes a step back. It already looks as though Markus is t...

I can think of two good reasons - Saracens & Wasps....

Apart from those two reasons, there's no reason, I could agree.

Re: Is it not obvious....

Bath have played Worcester, Newcastle and Northampton. These are games that they would be expected to win. Big win against Newcastle at the Rec. Tigers have got two away wins and a loss against Wasps, who are arguably going to finish in the top four on the form and with the players that they have a...
