I will be shouting as loudly as I did v Exeter then had hardly any voice for 2 days.
It’s strange as I think those of us who went v Bristol and then Wasps away last season made more noise than I’ve heard for Tigers in the recent past when fans attended.

It would be great to create the sensational atmosphere we had in the days Deano and Johnno. Make lots of noise throughout the whole game. Having part of the Crumbie missing doesn’t help so we have to get everyone behind the team.

As for the next few weeks. Play with little change to try to continue winning for as long as possible. Quins only rested players when their Euro campaign was over and
it really paid off. For now, it’s one game at a time. Sarries is another huge challenge!
Any result is possible.

So will the ABC Bar and Lounge be open this Saturday as I believed it was only closed because of the lack and refusal by Chiefs to get vaccinated and they fell below the 85% threshold.????
I hope this week the bars do not run out of beer and the queues for cup returns outside the Nottingham / Crumbie could convert their cups into donations for the developments.
Alternatively there was no queue under the Nottingham stand for returns and I was told they had beer too.. Win Win!

Why don’t you just knock the rugby on the head and go to the pub?

Yeah. Heaven forbid he have a pint or two on a Saturday afternoon. He'll be making noise and enjoying himself next, and then where will we be??

I may be wrong, but thought the league stance was these measures in place till all clubs have reached the 85% (even if the 2 clubs involved have met it) I think to prevent discrimination against certain clubs?

We have to treat this game as if we are the biggest underdogs the world has ever know and they are our fiercest rivals. We have to shout and chant ourselves hoarse both in attack and more importantly in Defence for 80 plus minutes. We must cheer every tiny win whether it’s a tackle or a scrum or a break! We have to question every decision against us and we have to ridicule every error they make! That’s what made away teams quake in front of the Crumbie Terrace (don’t know or care what they call it now .. it’ll always be the Crumbie to me) it’s been too easy for too long to visit Welford Road.. We need to make it a place of fear once more .. make The Shed look like a damn tea party!
I'm in 100% on this, apologies in advance to those around me on the Crumbie Terrace though if you join me I'll be less annoying...
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?

All joking aside it looks pretty wet on Sat so forward dominance will be key.. will be interesting to see if Sarries select Billy and Mako as they will make a big difference in that department

Great to see Saumaki and Socino in line for a run out. Fair bit of rotation but still very strong

Really hope Steve has something up his sleeve as that team really is not what I would have expected against Sarries..
