Re: London Irish Away
Motley bunch of officials...
To win is not as important as playing with style!
Re: London Irish Away
True but the fact they won’t be playing in front of any fans does inhibit this somewhat in my view. However I was guilty of really underestimating Irish when they thrashed us last season, in fact only seems like yesterday I was in a Twitter spat over it.

Re: London Irish Away
The Madjeski was like an ice bowl and lacked any atmosphere. Not sure how the pitch measure up at Brentford against the Madjeski.

Re: London Irish Away
Dickson another example of a good ref gone mediocre. Expect a struggle, and a card or two for our forwards.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Re: London Irish Away
I understand Irish were never comfortable at Madjeski . There was a degree of bickering about grass length and pitch wear between them and the soccer lot a while ago. There should have been a fair few supporters too, a big catchment area The pub outside/ on Reading station, The Three Guineas, was an enthusiastic supporter and there were others in the town but they rarely drummed up much support. I think their brand of "Oirishness" may have been a bit off-putting to the casual supporter. Reading Rugby might have done better

Re: London Irish Away
No, everything has changed this year. Dickson has re-found his mettle and Tigers are on the up!

Re: London Irish Away
Check the citing officer, he should be cited for crimes against rugby officiating, can anyone do that job, Julian could fit a game in with shorter daylight hours..Johno, Cozza?OakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 25, 2020 5:15 pm London Irish vs Leicester Tigers (Brentford Community Stadium, 4.15pm) Live on BT Sport 2HD

Re: London Irish Away
Borthwick hints some players could make their debut, so potentially be Bruin could feature?

Re: London Irish Away
They have a 7/8th place match scheduled on 05th December at the moment so do not expect any internationals back until the 12th.chipnchase wrote: ↑Wed Nov 25, 2020 9:37 pmYes, due in straight away. Doesnt seem to be any isolation or rest time required.
