Dig out your Tigers flags for Sunday

Figure image
Wear your Leicester colours with pride to Sunday's Heineken Cup clash with Perpignan (kick off 3pm) and don't forget to bring your Tigers flags.

Tigers top Heineken Cup Pool 5 by a point from Perpignan after last weekend’s game in the colourful and hostile Stade Aime Giral.

Now Leicester are preparing to host last season’s Top 14 runners-up and Tigers are looking to give them a traditional Welford Road welcome.

Dig out your Tigers flags and bring them along to Sunday's big match to create a colourful spectacle.

Captain Geordan Murphy said: “We have fantastic fans who get right behind the team and we want to show them what our hospitality is like.”

There is plenty going on around Welford Road in what will be our last game before Christmas. We're hosting a Christmas Market outside the Caterpillar Stand, with seasonal stalls, a free Santa's grotto, carol-singers and brass band. The market is open from 10am, with Santa welcoming young supporters from 11am.

The market area will also include a Tigers Club Shop marquee, offering a full range of replica kits, souvenirs and merchandise, as well as shirt printing so you can personalise Christmas gifts for any Tigers fan. Season ticket holders can pick up a copy of the Tigers Official Yearbook on production of their season ticket card from our stall in the Christmas market.

The Final Whistle bar is open from 11.30am - ask about the meal deals - and there are activities for Junior Tigers Club members in the clubroom in the Goldsmiths Stand from 1pm.

European Rugby Cup chairman Jean-Pierre Lux is attending Sunday's game and will make a special pre-match presentation to Tigers in recognition of reaching 100 Heineken Cup matches.

We'll be announcing the winner of the Goldsmiths Player of the Month award for November and at half-time supporters can join the Burton Choristers of Loughborough Endowed Schools for some Christmas carol-singing.

Tickets are still available to the big game. Secure your seats now on the Tigers ticket hotline on 0844 856 1880, book online by clicking here or call in person.
