MATT O'CONNOR

Post by Traveller »

In order to ensure that we stay focussed on the future successes of Leicester Tigers, this trail is dedicated entirely to Matt O'Connor.

If at any point in any trail on any subject you find yourself about to write along the following lines, 'But the problems started when MOC joined the first time' or "But the problem was when Matt O'Connor went to Leinster and then came back' or 'MOC was the main problem' etc. Then stop. Cut the offending sentence / paragraph and post it on here. That way an MOC fanatics have a dedicated safe space to discuss him to their hearts content and everyone else can avoid it.

(written in jest).

Good idea to create his own thread to keep things on topic.
I thought O'Connor was a good interviewer, the only issue I had were the camera angles changed so often that by the time his show finished I looked like Nookie Bear.

What more is there to say about MOC that has not been said? In summary for me his re-appointment was a complete and utter unmitigated disaster for our club, and one that did not need to be made by a board whose incompetence was simply breathtaking.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

As self appointed Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, Non-Exec Chair, Director and Head of Media on this trail I have responsibility for all policy decisions and I have alone have decided that the names of Cockerill and Cohen may be included on this trail.

This means that they have now become redundant to the rest of the forum (with a bit of luck). Anyone ignoring this will be sent to stand outside the Headmaster's study.

Is this a word association thread?

If so I might struggle to keep the right side of censorship.

Amen to that, an appointment that should have never been made in the first place. Unfortunately I cannot 'unremember' his appalling language at Wuss, and having to apologise to fans with kids.

I think we judged him way too soon, reckon if we'd given him 3 or 4 seasons he would have led us to the national league 1 trophy...
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

This is getting a bit like Monty Python - what did the Romans ever do for us........... this is a trail dedicated to Matt O'Connor.

Can we include Cockerill and Cohen?

Yes we can. This is a trail dedicated to O'Connor, Cockerill and Cohen.

What about Nigel Wray?

OK. This is a trail dedicated to O'Connor, Cockerill, Cohen and Nigel Wray.

Any other takers - remember the purpose is to dump the past from all other trails and so we can look forward ...........

Kaiser Wilhelm II?
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?
