Forum Rugby Club - 2009-2010 Season
Posted by: JWM on 10 July 2009
Well it's just about mid-July; the Lions have been, been cheated, and gone; so it must be time to start thinking about the new season. 
Lots of new faces in most GP clubs, plus of course Leeds now. (Cockers running Leicester, Deano running Quins, Backie running Leeds - these Tigers get everywhere!
) And of course Tigers are looking forward to giving out the usual mauling, but this season with a brilliant new stand and a new home kit (to be launched on 24th July). Sorry Sharlene, I'm spending my clothing allowance on that, not some bloomin' Naim T-shirt...!

Ooh, don't let Nick from Suffolk hear you say that!
Don`t worry about him it seems that he can`t explain his comments anyway, just blurts it out then runs.
TIGERS TIGERS
Canterbury Shirts (UK) have gone into administration. Very sorry for employees 
But it also means that Pests and others will be looking for new outfits at v short notice, as all club contracts have been cancelled.
Where's Umbro and Bukta when you need them? Failing that, Cotton Traders - you know it makes sense! You might even get a rugby shirt that looks like a rugby shirt!

Give them all Tigers tops to wear
Cancel that idea they might think about winning something
Watch out, Tigers are coming to get you - in a proper Tigers shirt!

Lovely as you say a proper TIGERS shirt, i`ve just come over all unnecessary and feel the need to purchase one. Even chillkram must be moved by the need to stand too and and feel the surge of pride

Your aspiration is, presumably, naked, since their kit supplier went bust?
best lend them some kit to play in as we have already given them a player i.e. Tom Varndell which i think was a big mistake
I quite like fullers ESB. though i cannot see the beating, because the tigers will still be on a high and ready to continue from where they left off and the wasps will be trying to regroup with a new manager and players. But only time will tell and varndell could be a double agent ????

A damn fine brewery if there ever was one

Today's professional rugby football team in the city of Leicester is known as the Tigers. This has a regimental connection. In 1825 the regiment, which at the time was known as the 17th Foot, was given the honour of wearing the insignia of a tiger superimposed with the word "Hindoostan", in recognition of its long stint in India between 1804 and1823. The regiment began to be popularly called the Tigers and the name had since stuck. In WW1, the Leicester Brigade (110th Brigade of 21st Division - see above) was known as the Tigers.
Better history than the pests, hey
Oh yes, i knew early afternoon. BRING IT ON
Pleased to see you're on the ball, Munch!
Very good news, not least because it uses existing stadia (including Welford Rd) so the infratructure is already in place pretty much.
But it should be a good encouragement to young people starting out in the game, and to Britain as a rugby watching nation. Perhaps we can get some Forum members together to go and watch a game or two?? We should be able to. After all, we've only got six years to plan the p*ss up.
Right, off to the seaside for a bit, with my green, red and white bucket and spade.
