Thought for a minute, you were raffling an Ireland tackle bag signed by Darren Cave.

Some good gear there though.

i have yet to win anything in a raffle, I suspect the England shirt signed by Tigers is a cert to come to me. Question is do I ask if anyone has a match or offer it to Tigerburnie in exchange for a contribution to Grumps charity?

There is no way I could give it space in my house, if would be like summoning Satan - God's imaginary enemy. :roll:

Felt I had to move in quickly to quash rumours of Kofi being on the panel. The panel is in fact:

Stevie Ferris
Ruan Pienaar
Michael Allen
Rob Herring
Callum Black

So folks, come along and ask Stevie about his not so gammy ankle, Ruan about his magic right foot, Michael about his hair, Rob about his left hand and Callum about his back.....

7.30pm next Tuesday at Ravenhill

Hell, you might even win an Ingerland shirt.....

Got me thinking while I was out with the dog. Are there any uses for an Engerland shirt (signed or otherwise)?

Came up with a couple. I'm sure others can do better.

1. A rag for cleaning the jalopy - not the paintwork you understand, but perhaps under the wheel arches if you've just driven through a ploughed field.

2. Emergency bedding for a doubly incontinent pet.

Bound to be one of the 2 Sorries fans without a shirt. Luton isn't the wealthiest area

Actually Merv I have 4 dogs, 3 of whom sleep in cages side by side in the garage with a big old bedspread covering them for heat, they often pull bedding from one cage to another so they get torn regularly & I have to get "new " stuff -England shirt sounds just the job.

Good idea, if somewhat disrespectful to our good friends from Tigertown. :thumleft:

Didn't see you after the game, assume you went of curry-hunting? Curried Tiger, a dish best served warm & consumed when full of stout. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Was about for a while after the game. Had one in the bar in the H&B afterwards then wandered onto the pitch - great being able to do that :thumleft: . Met Rory and Geordan Murphy there too. Had another one in the Final Whistle before calling it a day - had to drive to Stansted on Sun morn. :thumbdown:

Got a wee package the day containing 2 Tigers flegs courtesy of a lovely lady whose son took ours home.

I came home with a wee tiggers fleg that I had exchanged for an Ulster one straight after the match .... the young lady I swapped with told me to watch out for the Ulster fleg being waved at their QF in France, :thumleft:

One of the ones I got was a souvenir fleg from the 2011 AP Final - not the best of omens as Sarries bate Tigers in that one. Good job I'm not superstitious. >ECNF

We didn't give away 2 of our 4 Ulster flegs in Leicester. They were either stolen as we celebrated post match or we just lost them. :(

I'd like to blame Trevor Brennan but currently have no proof that he was there.

A successful trip Mike?

Coming back with 2 flegs is 2 more than you usually do! :lol:

FWIW, I think I saw Trev selling a couple of yella Ulster flegs in the wee loyalist shap on the Newtownards Road the other day - I think they may have a wee scam goin' on .....

You probably fell through a hedge again and lost them :roll:

All of this thread simply confirms that Tigers fans by and large were first class and that there is nothing that you would put past Brennan..... or HWM for that matter.

Mind you quite what it has to do with 6Ns I am uncertain.
