Re: On a positive note........

Interesting piece on the BBC website today by Toby Flood talking about how his time at Tigers helped him a lot, mainly in attitude and team spirit. If we keep this culture and blend with a dusting of the "Je ne sais pas" I think we will be OK.

On a positive note........

It may be due to the fact that I am in a pub in Matlock, enjoying hand-pulled Abbott Ale, but I am taking a positive outlook on Tigers future prospects. She who must be obeyed took out season ticket 2 years ago (after 31 years of marriage) and is still loving it; Tigers have made some good signings ...
