Cars outside today, I wonder if some new Tiger might be moving in?
Who is the "his" here? I.e. whose house are you referring to?

I think it is Harry Thacker, it initially was posted immediately after the rumor of him having left Bristol.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Would be very surprised if we signed another hooker

Don't think we're signing him, more a suggestion that he may have sold his house to a different player, maybe Hassel-Collins or Bassett or someone not yet announced

Yes I was referring to Harry Thacker, his house has always been rented out since he left Tigers, first to our players, then Aled and has been empty for a year after Aled moved, it was then up for sale then sign disappeared and I saw cars moving in. I wondered if it might be our new coach, or new players, I will keep watch. (but it was reported Harry had left Bris immediately but that seems to be wrong).

If you could ring the doorbell/knock on the door and do the standard "Oh hi, sorry to bother you I'm lost could you tell me the way to [insert place in Leicestershire] ?", that would clarify things maybe ?!

Looks like Steve Diamond has gone to Edinburgh.

Biggest take from that is that I guess that ends any hope of Atlas being blocked and his consortium riding in to save Worcester.

Damnation it is then, and the housing/retail park where Sixways once stood
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000

I think the plan is to lease it to Wasps and it effectively to become Worcester Wasps. There's talk of refounding Warriors in the lower leagues but I suspect throwing a few grand at a barely semi pro team each year whilst collecting rent from Wasps and getting planning permission etc sorted on those nice profitable assets is more the goal.

The local council have already promised to veto all planning around Sixways if it's deemed to be at the detriment to rugby in Worcester so they need to keep a team in that stadium.

Tight Head merry go round at Saints today.
Trevor Davison going from Falcons to Saints with immediate effect. Oisin Heffernen going the other way till end of the season too.
Ehren Painter also leaving Saints, going to Exeter as cover for Harry Williams.

I had high hopes for Painter as he seemed a very good scrummager but he seems to have struggled recently. Might be the making of him at a side that values the set piece.
