As for Ford, unless Eddie tells him he’s out of World Cup contention he’s not leaving England until after the next World Cup and no one else in England would have the cap space for him to leave Tigers

At one time in the club everyone was a gossip.
Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2020/21 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD EPISODE VI: The Return of the Burns
True,but his gossiping led me to break a story on here the day before any press did!

so let me get this right, people are moaning about no news coming out yet people are being critical of the people that used to leak the news out?

Essentially yes.Jimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 6:18 pm so let me get this right, people are moaning about no news coming out yet people are being critical of the people that used to leak the news out?
Me I'd like to know what is happening, but that leaks aren't healthy for the club, so although I'd like to know more I'm certainly happier this way.
The key fore is that the club is timely with official stories which I think in general it is.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

its the same with Leicester City, journalist will tell you their first 2 summer signings are "done" but neither have been officially announced by the club yet as they haven't been completed in terms of all the paperwork and medicals etc.TigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 6:41 pmEssentially yes.Jimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 6:18 pm so let me get this right, people are moaning about no news coming out yet people are being critical of the people that used to leak the news out?

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2020/21 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD EPISODE VI: The Return of the Burns
It is interesting. one of my friends was talking with our magical Australian winger during the week and he tried to get on to signings. All he got from him was an "it's more than my life is worth to tell you. Besides which it would be unprofessional.'longlivethecrumbie wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 7:16 pmWould that be a certain front rower who is now located across the western border?Scott1 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 4:53 pmCould play anywhere across the front row and had loose lipsJimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 4:49 pm
