Do you think they will want a rugby development officer? I know of a really good one. But being his Mum I am a tad biased. :wink:

I doubt if they would ever pay him enough to tempt him away from his Mecca. Twickenham. :D

Where will be their home ground, and will they be in the Cyprus league?

AND, will they be updating their web site to show when games are postponed or cancelled? I'm getting fed up with a drive out to a certain stadium to watch a certain team to find I am the only one there.

I think it would be better if the Tigers re-located to Peyai. We have a first-class stadium and facilities which could be shared with our wonderful football team. At the moment watching Tigers' games is not very good as the supporters are only allowed on two sides of the pitch and the two shelters cannot accommodate the number attending.

I don't think that Peyia has enough youngsters for a team, most of us residents are at the top end of the age range and I for one left my boots iat Ruislip RFC 5 years ago!

Would that be upper or lower Peyia you are suggesting they relocate to?
