Leicester Tigers

You didn't find anything about their partnerships with local grassroots clubs? Partnerships with Aussie Shute Shield teams? Partnership with Brunel University? Their development of the women's game? Presentation of a phased development plan to support their Premiership application, rather than a sh...

Agree with mol2 Yet another law that was changed, to the detriment of the game It used to be when the ball is kicked anyone in front of the kicker must retreat until put onside by the kicker or someone behind.. … this not only creates space for a runner in broken field choosing to counter attack bu...

I wait with baited breath but I feel that any rise in season ticket price with some 30% less premiership games and the mickey mouse premiership cup some folks may given the cost of living crisis decide that their season ticket(s) is a luxury they can no longer justify. How many games do you need a ...

I think that figure is hopeful. I think we'll be lucky to see 10% at the lower bracket.

There is a certain irony that the Prem want well run, sustainable clubs with a good, local fanbase and the first requirement for promotion requires that they either enter debt to buy or build a new ground or sell an essential asset to move to a rented ground and potentially move away from the local...

As usual some very interesting points made. Ealing and their owner are obviously ambitious, I do feel their fan base might be an issue. Yes Tigers were missing most of their big stars, but an Ealing win would have got them a home final in a National competition you would hope that would have attrac...

There are IMO a lot of pro's and con's to Ealing I think personally I'd like to know the strategy post their current owner. He's 86 or 87 I think now and what that future plan is for me more important than when will the pitch be replaced. I think if the succession plan is good and there is enough c...

What did Exeter do right? They got right to the top of Europe from that level. Perhaps Ealing had no history? shrewd signings and an incredible crop of players coming through at the same time Good timing - at the time when the Championship benefitted from regular TV coverage. Investment from their ...

It does seem strange to me to outright refuse to look for something, but still be happy to loudly proclaim that it does not exist. Looked on their website and your favourite google and nothing. But then I’m guessing you already knew that You didn't find anything about their partnerships with local ...

Council said No find out why and reapply with necessary amendments If you’re serious long term you integrate the youngsters don’t sign Billy Twelvetrees and Lloyd Williams. I agree with your point about the moneymen Point is he appears to be looking for short term fixes not a long term strategy, yo...

The trouble is then that Ealing might have a fake fan base,as Wasps did. It has to be organic. Most of those going to the Ricoh weren't even Wasps fans. I understand that they moved multiple times etc ,but if Ealing did come up and grew their fan base the odds are that most would walk away when the...

How are Ealing supposed to build a fanbase if they're not allowed into the Premiership? Because they've show no evidence of being able to do it in the Championship. In five years they've raised their average attendance by less then 200. The only good crowds they get are with local derbies (London I...

From what I could see on TV it looked a splendid small ground. The pitch looked horrendous. It looked like one of those 3G/4G pitches that you see at schools when they spend a shed load of money laying it but forget to pay for its upkeep. The clue being how the players were covered in rubber crumb ...

I honestly don’t know what to say

Good? The game is now going to be more accessible for even more people to watch.

Have to ask if Radwan has done something to upset the England set up. To get in neither squad when he clearly has the ability on the test scene does seem odd. Does he though. Yes he’s quick and a good finisher but hat the rest of his game like. Not sure you’re picking him ahead o OHC , Murley or Sl...
