Sounds like a saints academy product.
I was talking to a mum of the current crop. Her lad is in a bulking and strength phase and expects him to play for Cambridge or Bedford later in the year.

The Lions are a relatively new club formed by two clubs joining together and try to get into the National leagues, Nat 1 for the first time is a bit of a dream they planned for. The reality of the step up is something I believe this group can do and put together some results, but it will take a while to adjust. Sadly the very tight group that won the promotion was hit with some key players retiring, but the new players are showing they are a match for what went before, just need the side to gel and that will come from playing these top clubs in the league.
The clubhouse is quite new, built from the proceeds of selling the old first team pitch for housing. Hoping with Tigers playing Bristol tonight there might be a few of their fans coming down to see what all the fuss is about.

Mid week game result, quite a few loanees that the Lions were having a look at, plus some of the development team along with a couple of first team players.

Leicester Lions welcome back Geordie Irvine from a spell with Cambridge, Simon Koroyadi starts at number 8 in place of the injured Nick Cairns and Charlie Davis starts on the wing, Loosehead Aaron Dawson returns from injury in place of Tim Hoyt who is on the bench at the Stoop for tonight's Tigers game against Harlequins.

Huge game this weekend in what might be a new Midlands derby game, Moseley had the better of the game at Billesley Common, where the Lions picked up a losing bonus point and will no doubt be aiming to take advantage of being at home and get another win under their belts. The weather is forecast for light winds and light rain, with no game at Welford Road it is hoped a few Tigers fans will come along and swell the crowd for what promises to be great game.

Leicester Lions don't do a pre match review, so I'll have a go myself
Midlands Derby match Westleigh Park Blaby 10th February 2.00 pm kick off. This will be Moseley's first visit to the Lions den and after a close encounter at Moseley's where the Lions secured a losing bonus point. Much has gone on since that early season match with the Lions finding their feet in the league at last and stringing together a run of four successive victories, including impressive away wins at Richmond and Blackheath. Moseley are pushing at the top of the league and are sure to be trying to take advantage of their rivals Plymouth Albion's loss at the Lions last week to gain a place in the league. The Lions now sit above the relegation drop zone, but it is very tight with few points separating the sides and the Lions will be keen to press home their advantage of playing at their own ground as they strive for safety. The fans are divided on the Rolling Mauls weekly match prediction league so it would seem the outcome is very much in the balance. Wishing those travelling to the ground have a safe journey and that they enjoy their visit.
