Went to a couple of games with a Cov friend last year. Good fun.
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

Think I'd prefer to spend my money at MWWR. Hoping the club throw their doors open for an event soon

If there's a choice, I would travel the extra 15 mins up to Nottingham. Looking much better this season, normally a few Tigers in the matchday 23 as well. Home games on a Friday night which leaves the rest of the weekend free.

A visit to Blaby to see Leicester Lions at home or watch Loughborough Students at home saves costs and supports local rugby too.
Hinckley are away this weekend at Exeter University, all in National leagues 2 West, Lions are currently in second place in the league and pushing for promotion this season.

I’m out of touch with local rugby, do the Lions have many Tigers, if any playing for them. Promotion to league 1 would be great, but I do worry if it would present a whole new lot of problems.

The Lions are coached by ex Tigers, but this season there are no dual registered players at present, but you can have a pre match meal and a ticket to watch the match against Bournville for just £25. They're presently scoring plenty of tries and looking good for a challenge at the top of the league just now, they have lost one game to league leaders Dings Crusaders from Bristol.

We are lucky to have a number of great clubs within Leicestershire with good quality rugby on show down to around Counties 1.

Get down your local club for a watch and pint on Saturday afternoons, you'll be very welcome and appreciated.
