Re: Looking for info on a Leicester old boy

Unfortunately in my experience as many people claim to have "played for Tigers" as claim to have seen the Sex Pistols live in the seventies, and both numbers are significantly greater than fact.

Re: Saracens v Leicester

So PROUD of the boys ! Taking on the league leaders in their backyard, with a near cast iron record, and playing ( by the sound of it) aggressive rugby to take them down, rather than mixing it up for a losing bonus point. Takes sand. I LOVE Tigers when they play with sand, even when we lose. I wish ...

Re: Hop, skip and a pass?

I watched my recording of " the rugby club" today having read this thread and ALL the 9's were skipping before passing when serving the line in attack. I don't think its just Tigers or England. Maybe it helps get distance at the price of speed ? I dunno.

Re: Harry's knee

I think the lad should retire you know. I don't think its up to much and him being crippled for life is not worth persisting with playing him.

Re: IS CIPRIANI MAD

Cipriani no - he has been tried and found wanting at both internationals and GP level. His chances have come and gone. And the hand wrote "Mene mene tekel up'harsin" oo ! Great Daniel quotation ! I think Austin's an ass. I loathe arrogant people, even if they are talented. Cip isn't a ten...

Re: IS CIPRIANI MAD

Absolutely agree. And Castro is just too awful for the Azzuri to call up. I heard he's forever weakened by that abdo muscle injury he got last week.... best he stays with us through the 6N...

Re: Cippers off to pastures new?

TV stuck a brace of tries past Bayonne a fortnight ago so I doubt he's our because of poor form.

Re: Radio Leicester is the worse commentary I have ever heard!

Having been called upon to commentate on a few amateur events, I have great sympathy. When the ref, ten feet away is not sure what's happening how can the commentators be expected to be oracles of accurate status info ?

I am fairly new to Bleddyn's commentary and I liked the passion I must admit !

Re: Cippers off to pastures new?

He was just RUBBISH wasn't he ?
I'd actually put Gareth Davies from my own local team Dudley Kingswinford beyond Cipriani based on today's performance.

Quite impressed by Danny Care though.

I was at that game just behind the half way line. Best seats I ever had, worst defeat I ever endured :(
