Never will stop supporting..
but don't believe in blind faith...
It's simple ..say what you see...

Re: Tigers v Quins (H) - Premiership - Saturday 11th November 2023 KO: 15:05
Agree to the above... We have in fact more or less lost both however. To me though ,that cannot or must not detract from under performance. Is this not so ? Have we performed to our 'supposed' ability or expectations during this period ? Simple enough question , even without the excuses (if that's w...

Re: Tigers v Quins (H) - Premiership - Saturday 11th November 2023 KO: 15:05
This was always going to be a difficult season with the World Cup and players away with their respective countries. The players will have been under contract so constraints on what was available in the salary cap to bring in more players. The internationals have only just returned to the Club with ...

Tbh,at the moment I’m hoping Oz come in for him and he changes his mind! +1 Lets be honest here...no knee jerk comments either..... The world cup absentees, the shortened season et al are no shocks or surprises... The Club - as has every other club - had time to prepare (properly) and mitigate for ...

Re: Tigers v Quins (H) - Premiership - Saturday 11th November 2023 KO: 15:05
Defence wasn’t great but we all know Quins score tries. Kata looked good, odd to take him off. Cronin and Kelly don’t cough up at multiple key moments and that’s a bonus point win. yeah, 'Quins score points... But would anyone seriously argue that we are shipping far too many ... Concede 29 points ...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - Crocodile McKeller: Men at Work
For me Mike Williams , like so many others who represented The Club during that period, carries the tag of unfulfilled potential...injuries did not help him but the seeming malaise and internal turmoil that was a feature of our whole structure meant that no one really flourished under either Mauger,...

Re: Exiles set for Exile?
Unfortunately the club game is deteriorating into a bit of a car crash with many clubs struggling. My point/question relates to the differences and similarities to county cricket. The county cricket clubs seem to survive on very thin pickings. Less than premiership rugby I would guess. Does rugby's...

As in all sport , disparity in off field finance and financial power is reflected on the playing field. Like or not ,money = power and strength. Way of the world I'm afraid.There is no such thing as an even/equal playing field ; and/or put another way life just isn't fair. Best learn to live with it .

Re: Dan McKellar to join Leicester Tigers as Head Coach
Gotta give the guy a chance and not pre judge...
Big names = Big reputation, but one has to deliver in the here and now.
Personally welcome the appointment and look forward to what is built both on and off the field.

Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Saturday 07th January 2023 - KO 14:00
It's always harder to defend a title than win one...kinda what makes Sarries exceptional - the ability to just continue , whatever. All that said we have to face facts the defence has been found wanting all season , even last year I personally believe that Kevin Sinfield (despite his undoubted quali...
