Re: Head Coach
Excellent news and well deserved - come on Cockers lets have some silverware to celebrate.
I used to be indecisive now I just can't make up my mind
Re: Head Coach
Read it in the Mercury 10mins ago, fantastic news.... There seems to be a great feeling around the club at the minute which hopefully will continue next year...
cheers

Re: Head Coach
Brilliant news about Cockerill, although, somewhat tempered with the bad news about Deacon.
Re: Head Coach
I definetely thought he deserved the job ...... until I saw him in THOSE tights on Saturday. You have to question the man's judgement on that basis don't you?
Always a Tiger
Re: Head Coach
Well done Cockers, and that's from one who thought he'd be a disaster. Yes, I'll eat my words, the man has done a good job. The coaching team are proving to be a real asset to the club, with Cockers at the helm.
Bring on the silverware!

Opportunities always look bigger going than coming.
Re: Head Coach
Excellent, so pleased for Cockers. He deserves it.
Re: Head Coach
nice to see them keeping it in house and forgeting about another foreign coach who doesnt understand the tigers way
Re: Head Coach
This should hopefully not just win us silverware this season, but also start to produce some consistent exciting rugby to watch and play. The players' confidence must be sky-high.
