Could Leicester have been reinstated into Europe?

Question

Could Leicester have been reinstated into this season’s Heineken Cup?

Answer 1

Leicester Tigers were furious that Ospreys had been allowed to progress to the last eight of this year’s Heineken Cup, despite briefly playing with a 16th man in their final group match. And then when they discovered Ricky Januarie may have been ineligible to play in the prestigious European competition, they were hopeful once more. However, the situation has not changed, and Ospreys remain in the tournament; while Leicester rue their wasted opportunity.
