Re: Heineken cup draw
Ulster in a bit of a mess atm, but we play like drongos over there, that's our only possible away win, but we will be lucky to beat the other 2 @ home unless we improve on the past 2 seasons! There are some cracking match ups potentially against the Scarlets if both teams at full strength (ha ha)
To win is not as important as playing with style!
Re: Heineken cup draw
It makes a big difference not having any Italian teams, evens up the pools.

Racing only beat us by a combined 7 points from both games last season so we can definitely beat themWayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Wed Jun 20, 2018 4:52 pm Ulster in a bit of a mess atm, but we play like drongos over there, that's our only possible away win, but we will be lucky to beat the other 2 @ home unless we improve on the past 2 seasons!

Re: Heineken cup draw
Really depends on how we come out the blocks in September. If we have chaos, or a start like the Bath game, and there seems to be no change from last woeful season, then we won't stand a scooby. I hope our recruitment will stick, Gareth Owen puts his injuries behind him, Gengey's knee is OK,.........
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Loving Carl Fearns' comments on hearing that Lyon face Sarries, Cardiff and Glasgow...
"Perfect, just what the knee wanted. Three artificial pitches."

Re: Heineken cup draw
I'm disappointed Tigers aren't coming to the Southwest, cos I'm certainly not making the 1500km round trip to Paris!!
There are however, some potentially top matches in Toulouse with Leinster, Wasps and Bath visiting "La Ville Rose".

Re: Heineken cup draw
We too are disappointed by the match venues......hopes of a trip to the south of France are dashed (unless we fail to get a home quarter final!!!). Llanelli is nowhere near as attractive as South of France!

Re: Heineken cup draw
Is the fact that Tigers have posted the wrong date for the 1/4 final an indication that the club don't expect Tigers to be involved ?
