GEORGE Ford scored 22 points to steer Leicester to their first Premiership final since 2013.
It was Ford’s final appearance in Leicester colours at Mattioli Woods Welford Road as he joins Sale next season but Tigers’ fans will be grateful that his magic turned the game as Northampton looked well on course to spring an upset.
Leicester have won all of their 12 league...
