Got to say it - He has some opinions that have appeared anti Tigers over the past seasons.
His recent critique however is spot on.
Is that more about how I'm viewing Tigers ???
Does he require more from a club for which he was a great servant.
I look at the legends wall on Welford Road and I despair.

Re: Austin Healey
Healey is pro good rugby rather than anti Tigers IMO, always has been.
Re: Austin Healey
AH is and has always been a brilliant gobby git - in the nicest possible terms. He sees the game as he used to play it. A spade is not a fork in his eyes and rightly so! For a player of his standing in the Tigers ranks, I believe no-one holds the club higher in respect and that his views a passionate and full on concern to see the Tigers get back to where we all want them to be. You can knock him if you like but knows his stuff and puts it bluntly!!

Re: Austin Healey
i like Austin and thinks he has a good view on how the game should be played, I don't think he is anti tigers, like already mentioned I think he is critical of poor rugby and more critical when it comes from tigers. Personally I think he could be more than useful in a consultant role at oval park, particularly with the amount of time he spends commentating in the Aviva premiership.
