Re: Bristol v Tigers
10-41!!!!!!!!
I’m sure they’ll be some positive spin on this from someone. But I am increasingly thinking a relegation fight (or even relegation) might shake things up a bit. Things seem to need shaking up...very sad.

As much as I think the club need a hard reset relegation would kill us, any team that isn't owned by a millionaire couldn't survive it nowadaysmarkharbtiger wrote: ↑Sat Dec 01, 2018 2:41 pm 10-41!!!!!!!!

Harry Thacker was immense. The TPN signing looks laughable now.

Re: Bristol v Tigers
Hopefully someone at the game can comment. But no points scored in the second half seems astonishing with the talent on the team?!? What happened?
9 played, 3 won...oh dear.

Re: Bristol v Tigers
I watched it on the stream on Bet 365, it really was embarrassing, Johnson was not exaggerating. We were well 2nd best even before Eastmond was sent off. I really don't know what else to say, there are no positives, except Manu scored a good try and lasted for 70 minutes. That's about it. Just awful.strawclearer wrote: ↑Sat Dec 01, 2018 2:47 pm "I don't know whether these people deserve to be playing at Leicester. There's not the spirit there should be and it's an embarrassment."

Re: Bristol v Tigers
I watched the stream, wish I hadn’t. Clueless, pathetic, not sure how many penalties given away but that really was a gutless performance. Difficult to see a way out of this. Europe next...:censored:
If I were a player looking for another club, I’d steer well clear.

Re: Bristol v Tigers
I had said it before: the wrong attitude has been instilled in all the squad with the attitude shown last season and this in The Anglo-Welsh and The British Cup where defeat was too easily accepted: rubbish- all games have to be won.
Now use Europe to play only those who are committed to the cause and I hope the club tells players to shut up about what they will do until they do it.
Didn’t want Murphy to go but now I would give him and the team until the Six Nations to win, win, win, win. If the results remain poor then a clear out has to happen.
Now, Premiership survival is the main aim- if the players need a reminder of what arrogance can do: say, Quins and Saints.
Oh, and forget the hotel. No team, no hotel!

Re: Bristol v Tigers
Well the Board has brought us to this juncture through their bungling incompetent recruitment both on and off the pitch. Kay and Underwood should go and take Cohen and Glyn with them
We need to clear out a raft of overpaid has beens not fit to wear the jersey.
We need a world class DOR, defence and forwards coach instead of the clique of ex tigers who simply are not up to it.
Action must be taken immediately or else the club will continue to decay and decline.
It will take years to for us to get back to the top but it must start now!

Re: Bristol v Tigers
I'll probably get dragged through a hedge for this but it has to be asked- how long can Murphy be allowed to continue? It doesn't appear thst he's got what it takes, this is just ghastly.

Re: Bristol v Tigers
The only up side is we know where we are now and that is in a relegation dog fight. Anyone who says we are not shows the captian of their brain ship is drunk at the wheel. We have been bonus point defeated by the newly promoted team after losing all our cup games and losing at home to Sarries (no disgrace that). We are in trouble make no bones about it.
There is never any points for 2nd place...
