As the Bank Holiday rain gods have turned out in force and we've decided not to attend the planned BBQ I thought I'd while away a bit of time looking at Tigers' season stats. It puts our performance in to perspective:
They only lost four games away: Us, Sale, Cheats, Quins. That's fairly good company (Cheats aside).
The won all their home games. Only 3 teams kept them to less than 20 pts: Cheats (13), Sale (19) Quins (16).
They scored 30+ points against 7 teams: Chiefs (34), Bath (40), Falcons (31), Wuss (36), Saints (35), Glaws (35), Irish (37), Bears (56).
I'm a glass half full type and I'll take yesterday's result as a positive given the wretched season we've had and something to build on.
