In the players and coaches section (the rugby tab) you can view previous tigers squads. The players are kitted out so you will be able to tell which year your shirt is from that.

Hi Skin_and_muscle I thank you for your advice but having followed as you suggested I am still not sure which year the shirt is from. It is brand new never been worn signed on the front but cannot match the signatures with the players. It is long sleeved small red and green hoops 1/2 inch wide. I was thinking of selling it so need to know as much info as I can.

Shame we can't post pics.


It IS a Tigers shirt, isn't it? Perhaps the sponsors' names might give us a clue?

Yes it is a genuine Leicester Tigers shirt sponsor on the front is BRADSTONE cotton trader on the left, as you look at it, Leicester Tigers emblem on the right, 1880 in the middle.

Private mail me a picture of the shirt if you can? Bradstone as sponsor means it isnt too old, with a few yearbooks we should be able to pinpoint the year....

As for the signatures, that is a different matter totally, we can but try!!

Cheers :smt023

Simple question - what colour is the tigers logo on the chest?

If it's gold then it's the shirt worn for the 2002-3 season. It first appeared at the start of the 2001-2 season (and was worn against Munster in the 2002 HC final win), but thereafter the sponsor changed from Vauxhall to Bradstone in the summer of 2002. :smt001 The shirt that followed had no stripes at all!

I have a shirt from the same sort of era and could probably help with the signatures if you can get some decent photos up.

Have a look at my post near the bottom of the page linked above - links permitting there's a pic of every Tigers shirt (bar this season's home shirt) in the past decade. :smt001

Hi Byron-tiger
I am trying to put some pictures of the Leicester Tigers shirt but have not been very successful.
I'll keep on trying. Cheers.
