Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 Squad and transfers thread part 2: The Lion, the Wig and the Wardrobe

Been a bit quiet today. Normally some posts on social media about being back in training etc but seen nothing so far. Obviously no obligation to show anything or say anything but I am sure that there are normally a few promotional pics and posts on the first day back. Is it the first day back? Mayb...

Re: Sir Kev.

Well I do not believe it !!! How on earth can anyone not honour Kevin Sinfield and Rob Burrow for the magnificent achievements of bringing MND to the notice of so many, for the fantastic fundraising they have brought to research MND and build a new hospital. I really am dumbfounded as to why no reco...

Re: Pinchen vs RFU

The impact has been that I have gone from passionate England Fan to..well…meh. As they only seem to care about the senior England team and the small minority who can afford the ridiculous prices to watch them with prawn sandwiches, I don’t see why I should care about them either. I’ll stick to simp...

Re: Play Off Semi-final - Sale - 14th May 2023 - KO 3-00pm

Thankyou to all the great Tigers players and coaches especially Aled and Wigg for their great inspirations. A great "Thankyou!" To all the travelling Tigers as today their chants were exceptional, I wish I had come down to see the game but with the TVs on and looking out to snow capped mou...

Re: Play Off Semi-final - Sale - 14th May 2023 - KO 3-00pm

Sorry but just had a nightmare whilst looking to see without success the match officials for Sunday. I dreamt ~ Referee Karl Dickson with Assistants Craig Maxwell-Keys and Claire Hodnett with a TMO of our dear Ian Tempest, Citing Officer of David Rose (he loves Tigers!) and fourth official of Christ...

Re: Cameron Henderson in Scotland Training Squad

Aye this looks like a replacement for the injured Jonny Gray and well deserved by Cameron too.
Seeing Gregor Townsend, who was thought by some to be inline for Tigers Head Coach has as expected been retained by Scotland until April 2026. Please don't bring Cam back from France injured. :smt038

Re: Tigers v Quins (H) - Saturday 06th May 2023 - KO 4-00pm

I just hope that TMO Claire Hodnett does not try and control the game in the TMO role as she has done on previous occasions. Referee Tempest and Adam Leal need to keep her under control with her red card preferences. Oh dear Tempest was a real disaster and Clair assisted in Ashton's red card. Still...

I note that "Wingnut!" Stuart Hooper is leaving Bath after 15 years as a player, Captain, Director of Rugby, General Manager / groundsman. Well he might fit in at Worcester Wasps as he is multi - rolled! :smt002

Re: Financial woes - Newcastle & London Irish

I think having to pay extra for the ticket, kick off day and time and it being on the telly, indicates a slightly lower attendance. No idea how many Edinburgh are likely to bring I know a few fans thought with the loss of the two league games they should have got the Edinburgh game on their season ...

Re: Tigers v Bath (H)- Saturday 04th March 2023 - KO 15:00

Brown is the signing of the season I did not realise that the Season tickets qualified for Wimbledon impressions as we saw in the first half, but when we ran the ball it paid dividends rather than Ben's donations to the opposition. I loved it when a wag in the Crumbie 25 shouted at Brown to "R...

Re: 6 Nations 2023

So rumours of a Welsh players strike seem to have intensified today not quietened. So if they do strike, then the only players for the England clash they will have are those not based in Wales so just out of interest I tried pulling a 23 of Welsh players not in Wales. Holmes (Ealing) Rees-Zammet (G...

Referee is Foley, normally lets the game flow but needs to shut David Rose up as he is the TMO linked in to Austin.
Rose was once a good Referee but his TMO visits to Tigers have been very disappointing.
