       Well I suppose a win is a win, not sure what type of game we
       played but glad Leicester had a really poor game, it seemed like
       the coaches just said to go out there and play, then went for a
       pint or 2 for last 20 min. Hopefully time now for a reset and
       get the coaching right for next year instead of hoping the new
       signings will do their job for them.

       Just about hung on. Echo comments about gjaltema. Dire
       Scrappy game. Created some nice chances but, as we have been all
       season, not clinical enough. Very weak for their first try.
       Never expected to win though, so that's very pleasing
       Let's hope we can do better next season. Marchant will be a huge
       loss. Louw too

       I preferred the first half approach that resulted in scoring a
       couple of tries plus more points than they did.

       I get I may go OTT on certain things, but lets be honest LG has
       rarely looked good, and that's not based on even just today or
       last game, but in general. His introduction saw us slow things
       down and we stuttered, he gave away a shocking charge down, and
       gave away a penalty which led to a chain of the events which
       almost cost us the game. I appreciate those agreeing with me, as
       I think it would be hard for some to ever agree with me, as its
       a personal thing, even if what I was saying was accurate (and
       not even put out there in a disrespectful way).

       I really don't hate you
       I feel sorry for you sometimes.
       Do you want a hug :-)

       Well, if Danny hadn't knocked on, that second half would've
       looked very different. As it was, until Danny went off we were
       still trying to score, it's not like we refused to play rugby.
       We just played in a way that barely gave Tigers a sniff until
       Gjaltema's meltdown towards the end. How often do teams turn up
       at Welford Road and keep them out of the game for such a long
       period of time?
       We threw some poor passes and had a malfunctioning lineout but
       we created plenty in their half and with some more accuracy it
       would've been a different story. It was all one-way traffic for
       much of that half, which is great. Tigers were in a
       straitjacket. How often this season have we bemoaned losses when
       we've been profligate (like today) and continued to take risks,
       handing the opposition easy points?
       Personally I would rather we didn't bomb tries and we didn't
       keep throwing poor passes at crucial moments and we didn't have
       an incompetent lineout and we didn't have Lewis Gjaltema, but
       I'm happy with both the win and the tactics!

       If you look beyond the regular radio rubbish like rockstar and
       photograph etc there’s some real hidden gems, especially on the
       Dark Horse and The Long Road, with some good riff action. Next
       Contestant, s.e.x, figured you out, because of you and never
       again some good ones. But not everyone’s cup of tea

       Winning a close one away because we built a score by taking
       points on offer. If only we had done that more this season.
       Could have been very different otherwise.
       This team has other flaws, but this one is at least is something
       that we have shown to have corrected this week.
       Pleased for Cadan to finish top scorer. How that guy is shunned
       for hassell-Collins for England I shall never know.
