I hate the fact that thier are supposed tigers fans sayign the team were a disgrace today, we lost, we were beaton, the people complaining couldnt hva edone any better.

yes we didnt play brilliantly, but while wasps were just learing how to tackle for 3 weeks we wont eh Premiership.

This season who have we beat in Europe; Munster, Cardiff,Llunefly,Stade,
Who have they beat:Tigers,Perpingan,Lienster,Northampton

WE have done brilliantly this season, next seasons going to be hard, next season were going to get new players and a new coach, next season do you realey think Tigers will make the same mistakes again.

We won at Walkers, we wont the EDF, we won the Premiership, when you look at it we are the best side in Europe, we won 2 Finals out of three, we beat great teams, we battled on 3 fronts, WE NEARLY WON A TREBLE.

NEXT SEASON WE WILL GET NEW PLAYERS, NEW COACH AND WE WILL NOT MAKE OLD MISTAKES

WE LOST THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE! Tigers let themselves down, not the fans, at the end of teh day they will be hurting more then us, I know that the players believ the heiny in 'the one' aswell. so its fine to be disapointed

You are not the best team in europe..
Ospreys won the magners league, making them stronger candidates than you lot(it was a three nation competition).

Welshy3! 3 nation competition. with the greatest respect, the Scottish teams have not been there, making it a 2 nation. As for the number of fixtures. Tigers, unless I'm mistaken have beaten the best the Welsh club sides have offered and have run up pretty well against the Irish.Without your winger, Ospreys would have been stuffed!
There has been some magnificent rugby played this season in all competitions. It all comes down to the "day".

Cheap shot welshy. Name one Welsh team that beat us. If Ospreys are claiming to be the best in Europe then why did we beat them?

I didn't say ospreys think they are the best team in europe, it is just - arguably - right now - they have more right to that title than leicester.

I think you'll find that by being HC runners up makes Tigers the 2nd best team in Europe behind Wasps.
:roll:

I can't remember the results of Leicester's last three games with "the deservedly best team in the Europe". Shame, that.

Wasps are NOT the best team in europe. I doubt they even claim to be. They r however champions

So loosing a knock out random cup competition - convincingly - is considered a better barometer to your kings of europe claims than winning a cross boarder league, where you have to play every single nation in it - both home and away?

I don't think so.

Welshy - for a start, we beat every team in Wales this season. In fact, I don't think anything else needs saying!

Lets be radical here!!

How about we leave the personal back-biting and sniping where it belongs in the roundey ball game!!

Celebrate what each of your clubs and the respective players have done.

Just to play as many professional games as Tigers have this year is a monumental task, let alone the standard of opposition we have faced and come through.

Cup games are cruel -especially when it is your team losing that ONE game.

Acknowledge the success, accept the loss and move on to next season when a whole new chapter begins![/u]

Anyway, back to the topic...

What does it say about us as Tigers supporters that after a 4 year drought, some are disappointed we *only* won 2 out of 3 this year... A treble would certainly be a record, but we are also the only team to be in 3 finals in one year - let alone winning 2!

Good point, well made.

I was gutted at first, but putting things into perspective, after playing an outstanding, physical game last week, after many other tough rounds beforehand, the boys just looked so tired, and who can blame them! I'm still dead proud to be a tiger :oD [/list]
