I think this just goes to show how everyone else hated Johnno whilst he was playing for the opposiotion (Tigs, England and Lions) but all would welcome him with open arms to play for them. :wink: I'm just so very grateful to have seen him play and captain the way way he did. Doubly so because he was...

You know what? I sometimes wonder what this board is all about. As a forum it should be somewhere people with similar interests can express their views and accept that some may disagree. All the better if those views are backed up with a reasoned argument, ‘I think this because this blah blah.’ How ...

Don't want to go into detail, but from personal experience the club seem very introverted. They acknowledge fans rather that embrace them.

Nah, I suspect we're just playing Deano at his own game.

Can we have this team playing on Saturday. Or better still can we swap coaches around? Andy Key at least seems to be able to motivate the players and get them playing as a team. This lot seem to play with more passion and commitment than their 1st team counterparts. Let's not get carried away, ther...

Once the Red White and Green Machine got going everyone looked fine, certainly FM and IH worked well again, but as I said the heart seemed to go from the Falcon's game so it was hard to judge too much. That said we had to work for it in the first half and the forwards battle was pretty even, with us...

You're welcome Goffer, sorry I'm no good at the full reporting bit. Humphries had a good night with the boot once he got his timing right when kicking from hand. This coincided with the Tigers stepping up a gear in the first half and actually realising where the ball was at the breakdown. A couple o...

A Team in close shave

Just scraped home 71 - 5 !! First 20 minutes or so Falcons kooked the stronger with Tigs looking as if they'd spent the week at the Tom Varndell Accadamy of Tackling. :lol: Once the Tigs started to get away though the Falcons didn't really look up to too much, but the score at half time flatered us ...

A win's a win, but I agree that after last week against Leeds I thought it might have been more. That said the big boys showed us how a week in rugby is a long time. Good to hear that Ollie and Mad Dog came through OK. Looking forward to next Monday. Just think its a shame that both teams play at ho...

If Radio Bristol can call me "Pie Eater" then I may as well live up to the insult! Hi Big Dai Glad I wasn't the only one to feel insulted. That was one of the worst comentaries for a long time. The result was bad enough, but that was when I switched off in disgust. The BBC's standards are...

Not seen this years pic yet but in the past players who were not available for photo itself were 'Photoshop-ed' in later. Could be a space for someone, are they all there? I know I'm not!! :oops: :roll:

Well, another cracking performance with just over 3000 supporters. You know, it was that good I can't remeber the score. Something like 55 12 to us. Great night out spoilt by the expensive bar bill. ?2 for a glass of cordial, we won't be buying our drinks there again methinks.

I thought Hodgeson had moved, which constitutes starting his run up. Spreaders seemed at a loss about what to do for a while. Yes, he kept talking to the players and seems to command some respect from them, but I do think that the professional era has yet to be really embraced by the officials. 'Gam...

Strikes me that Deano was a large part of Tigers for many years and whilst he was top of the pile and making a name for himself everything was fine. Only when it went pear-shaped for him he dislikes the club. Sure, none of us know what went on and who, if any one person, was to blame, but it just se...
