Tigers around Jersey

Good to see the lads out and about around St Helier tonight! Taken some stick in the office this last two weeks and still got a week left before I fly home for the Ulster game!

Tigers!

Re: We Need More Chants!

Not a particular fan of the Hakka but I thought the Toulon crowd Hakka excellent. We could have one at WR - somebody shouts the lead phrase and the answer could be the sound of plastic cups tapping the side of flasks of soup followed by another call answered by the almost silent but intimidating or...

Re: SA Rugby brings in racial quotas

Absolutely fuming about this! It's not just sport where the colour of your skin gets you into a job that somebody else is potentially better qualified for! The following is absolutely true: Black Doctors only have to achieve a 60% pass rate to qualify, whereas white doctors have to achieve 95%. Who ...

Re: Singing of national anthems

fleabane - We were in Buenos Aires a few years ago watching the Springboks play the Pumas. We were sat in the middle of the SA Supporters Club members and many of them looked embarrassed when I sang all of their national anthem and they could only join in when the Afrikaans started! Did it again two...

South Africans for example - too many of them are too lazy and too many are too ignorant to learn the non-afrikaans verses!

Re: Tigers Catering Feedback.

Ridiculous queues again in Upper CAT, so much money lost by the club!

Pre-pour works, but you need someone who is capable of using both hands at the same time!

Re: Tigers Catering Feedback.

Tigersunited, I believe the Home Secretary may be calling you shortly! She doesn't want to play in your gang anymore! Perhaps you are right, it was a callous turn of phrase. I should have referred to them as 'incompetent nincompoops!' Thanks for your self-aggrandizing retort incidentally! :smt019 :s...

Re: Tigers Catering Feedback.

On the whole though NL the general service provided by Lindley this year has seen a marked improvement. Agreed, much in part due to your efforts. However, the phrase goes: 'You are only as good as your last game!' If, after the best part of three long seasons of failure, they want to prove once and...

Re: 'Charity' collections in the Final Whistle

I said no to the Children's Charity bloke as he looked suspect and he then tried to get my wife and our friends to donate at which point he was politely, but firmly told to 'Do One!'

Re: Tigers Catering Feedback.

I believe they went to the school for incompetent morons for today's bar staff! Both Lower and Upper CAT staff were beyond stupid!

It was a step backwards to what we expect from Lindleys today! Absolute rubbish!

Re: Taking a child to the game

Please keep kids out of seats! We had 4 of them in front of us banging the seats up and down for the entire game and 5 behind us kicking our seats! Parents apparently oblivious to how irritating their children are to others! Love kids and want to encourage them to love rugby, but parents need to tak...

Re: Semi Final Tickets

It still frustrates me that as a Season Ticket holder we have to pay for the semi-final tickets! They should be included as a bonus in the price of the Season Ticket.

Re: Tigers after the Final Whistle

As someone who did attend and, with those sat around me, got a brief appreciative wave from some of the players I understand why they didn't do a lap to say thanks for coming! They have never played in such a brutal game and probably needed to get into ice baths as soon as possible. They didn't want...
