Re: MESSI or MARADONA
The two best for me, but Messi is just on a different level. Even taking out his extraordinary goal record he'd be right up there just based on his vision, passing, and dribbling. Add in the ridiculous goal tally and the superhuman consistency (something that C Ronaldo also excelled at) there's no d...

Re: Leicester V Leinster H Cup QF
I'm no Leinster cheerleader, but if you look at the Leinster team there a hell of a lot more born and bred in Leinster, how many of the Tigers team are from Leicester or close by? Of those academy lads listed they're all within our catchment area other than Reffell who's Welsh and joined us aged 15...

Just back from the game. Some atmosphere, that. Credit to Leinster, they're such a well-drilled side as you'd expect when that many play for the same national team.

Tait, while still under contract with us, was informed he could find another club in the close season I believe, along with Croft and Kitto (who are still with us but nowhere near being selected) and a couple of others who did get contracts elsewhere. I guess our lack of depth at centre means he get...

Re: Cockers gooooooone
Who actually runs that club? I thought Mauger was in charge. Cockerill´s career has mystified me. Is he some sort of mafia guy? Mauger needs to make a call soon himself. I´ve always thought he was a potential head coach for the ABs. But he will have to get into that system soon or he won´t make it....
