Anglo Welsh Cup
Tigers Press Release today says '..Tigers then face Bath, Gloucester and Harlequins, before taking on Newport Gwent Dragons in the Anglo-Welsh Cup' Which means I now know one team we are playing and one weekend date but no Anglo Welsh Cup games are in the fixture list.
Does anybody know who we are playing and when in this competition?
I have tried Google and the RFU home site without any luck.

Possibly!
Until they change the current group format to something more exciting, maybe insert an extra round or have a cup competition which allows back the clubs below the Premiership, placing them with the Premiership and Welsh regional sides and maybe some other Welsh sides, then YES!!
N.B. By making the group format more exciting I mean changing the teams around each year.

Cheers Dave.
I had a feeling those were the group dates although not sure when the exact days will be known, but I was pretty confused from our site as to when the semi-finals and final would be!
I can already see a problem with the Final date. Once again there is a clash between the GP fixtures and the Anglo Welsh Final as we would be playing Bristol on the Sunday. You would have thought whoever organises this would have learnt a lesson from last season! :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Are you sufggesting that they should have left the whole weekend free of Premiership games to stop a clash with the AW Final?
All that would do would be to force EVERY Premiership club to play a midweek game to allow a free weekend. At least this way it means that the bare minimum number of clubs will have to re-arrange a fixture to accommodate the final.
