PROMOTION!!!! vs Cosby. Have your say! what a game
Had to be the first to write about this game!!
what a cracker.. The forwards played out of their
skins, it was kept tight but i knew things would
be ok after 2 mins a pen stroked home from the 10
meter line!!. Simply great defence from all
players and sharp attacks with Dom breaking the
line regularly, Dan in support.. Scuddy tackled
well at 10 and they had no answer to the backs..
Two great forward tries which were richly
deserved. They never really put us under much
pressure at all.. We could have scored another
couple of tries as we had overlaps both times but
not to worry. If you are like me i can't stop
smiling great result.. I can't play against
Loughborough so win boys and big for tref and the
club.. Enjoy the weekend because i am going to
best wishes whitters

We did it what a scalp to take worth missing the
start of the England game to delay the kick off
for a offical ref as one of the teams would be
wanting to replay it by now. We gained promotion
well done but We now need to get the tag of
Champions as coming second is not winning
anything Lets seal it against Loughborough Latest
League standings for the top 4 all played 13
games with one match to play. Market Bosworth 31
points +14 Coalville 29 points + 21 Cosby 27 +17
Loughborough 27 -7 Left to play Cosby v Leicester
Forest Loughborough 3rds v Mkt. Bosworth 3rds
Coalville v Lutterworth Shepshed v Hinckley 3rds
Lutterworth are down but they could still beat
Coalville which goes to show the quality of some
of these teams I think the League is poor for
them as they could not field a side against
Shepshed at start of the season and had points
deducted this was as a key club member died who
was father to 2 players in this team. But Cosby
messed our game about and did not get any
deducted where is the justice in that. Shepshed
were awarded the points for winning which has
ment finishing above Lutterworth.

Quotes ...
Can't believe the bbc have got quotes from the
new england stand off on our game ... "When your
forwards play like that it's easy for a 10. They
were outstanding" ... even brian ashton has had
his say - "That was a team performance, not a one-
man band - and one of the best team performances
I've seen in a long time," said Ashton.

What a Match What a Season !!!! Well done Tref Bowen what a skip ! having been cruelly robbed of skippering the team in our last promotion season you've finally got there at the second attempt in a much much harder league what a year New baby and promotion you also get to put your arm around me for most of the match it doesnt get much better than that. What a game for the forwards to play probably there most comprehensive game of the season 1-8 played their hearts out and give Cosby the lesson on rolling mauls they gave us last season the engagement in the scrums was immense the whole game !! the backs were back to their sublime and with the addition of dan livesly must now be the envy of the league. everyone tackled hard and we got our rewards PROMOTION !!! thanks to all the walking wounded that supported us throughout the match I know it really spurred me on. definately up for a drink on the 29th Tom lets all make that a night to remember.

Get The pass outs stamped for the 29th as we need a good session to seal it with. Missed off from the Match Report on the home page Tref Inspirational Leader who led the way from the start and others followed. (even though he awrded my first try of the match to cutters)! this game was won by team spirit and doggedness (Vickers won't be happy he missed some Dogging) Posted by Animal

The fun never stops........................ Efforts continued to be made to prevent history from being made with Bos 3's being the first 3rd team to reach the top league. Following on from the Cosby saga, I have now heard that Loughborough are stating that a game they had played against Shepshed earlier in the season (20 Oct - which they lost by two points, 29-31) is null and void due to the referee not turning up. Therefore, they are stating they have 2 match's to play, one against us and another against Shepshed! What is going on. The LRU website and results over the course of the season show the true league tables and if they change well............my thoughts on the game of Rugby and in Leicestershire especially will be changed forever. You can't start moving the goal posts now surely! The leagues seem to be now stating this game still has to be played. Why then did they include the result in the official tables and results as they have done since 20 Oct? Why didn't representatives of Loughborough complain about this result been included in the league tables back then! Why have they allowed it to go unoticed and uncorrected all season? This is a total SHAM! The integrity and credibility of all involved is being destroyed if this decision goes ahead. Whether we're involved in the fight directly or not, it still begs the big question how these things can be allowed to happen. These are my views and not the clubs as I am unsure whether they have been made aware of this yet. Dean passed this information onto me this morning and obviously been involved in the leagues himself he has to keep at arms length. I am tired and fed up of all of this. I really appreciate the efforts of everyone involved into arranging the leagues and the fixtures as it takes alot of time and effort, most unoticed but these episodes, The Cosby and Loughborough saga, I re- iterate do nothing whatsoever to assist in the integrity of the competition!

Disgraceful Totaly agree Tref this is only now coming about as it will affect their chances of going up!!! Any way to us it should matter not as we must win the game anyway.. Try and get the best team possible out there and get the victory...This underhanded tactic needs investigation.. Sorry can not make the 29th as away but i thought the big night out was the 12th April after a home game.. beers in bos and some grub?? is that now not the case? Posted by whitters

12 April / 17 May - Dates I will certainly be trying to arrange something for that night mate. I will keep in touch and update the website with info. I hope the 17 May is good for everyone for the Presentation evening. It will be a real good night. Posted by Tref Bowen

I feel very sorry for u and the whole team aswell. We have played every game to our best and now in 1 way or another we are being scrutinized for it. Wat a win on saturday boys wish i could of played more and not given any penalties away oops "sorry team" But it wasnt ment to be as the team picked itself and u all did just for it. I believe im jinxed with cosby anyway lads. The last 4 games we have played them ive only played 7mins in total. sum would say thats too much hahaha. But we smashed them around the park and cant wait for the next game! Bring it on. Posted by hardin

Shepshed replayed already Loughborough have alreay replayed the leauge game against Shepshed and won 46 nil Shepshed RFC 1st XV 0pts Loughborough RFC 3rd XV 46pts Loughborough 3rd team completed their second League double in as many weeks with a comprehensive demolition of local rivals Shepshed. Captain Joe McDonnell kept 12 of the starting fifteen that beat Coalville last week, and also welcomed some club players coming back from injury and having a run-out before next week's Easter Tour. The skipper himself was in fine form, rallying his troops with a speech that Eddie O'Sullivan would have been proud of. In fact, with Ireland capitulating at Twickenham E O'S would have no doubt have snatched Joe's words quicker than a Pikey lays dodgy tarmac... Loughborough's 46 points came courtesy of seven tries, four conversions and a drop-goal. (More on that later.) Man-of-the-match this week was a difficult one to call, with Dan Kirkwood, Craig Bowles and Kevin Clarke all contributing huge efforts to the cause. The scores came courtesy of wingers Jamie Hart and Aaron Brown (two apiece), outside-half Christopher Burbidge, scrum-half Andrew Price and number eight Nick Farnham. Fullback Leon Sullivan kicked four conversions, including two touchline corkers, and Burbidge realised a lifteime ambition by dropping a goal. I can retire a happy man. With the game being played on Shepshed's postage stamp pitch, space was at a premium and Boro' were keen to stay away from the touchlines. Scrum- half Andrew Price was bossing the breakdowns and was keen to show his range of grubber-passes, accurately hitting the bootlaces of every intended recipient. Several players complained after of a bad back, presumably from having to bend down so often. The home side, it has to be said, were understrength compared to the meeting in January and though they battled manfully they were simply overwhelmed by a Loughborough side high on confidence. Both sides struggled with a referee who took the word 'interpretation' to whole a new level. Bemused looks and groaning were the order of the day, but both sides managed to keep their moaning to a minimum, and far less than in the spiky atmosphere the last time the teams met. The try of the match was the one that never was, Nick Farnham collecting a pass in his 22 and running fully seventy yards, at first through three defenders and then bamboozling at least another six, proving that you are indeed "twice the player with the ball in two hands". Bowles was on hand to take a pass and supply Kev Clarke who was cut down inches short of the line. Very unlucky for Gizmo who deserved a score for all his hard work. Andrew 'Shopping Trolley' Thomas finally found his position, taking a turn at prop after ex Shepshed player Steve Hughes retired to the touchline to prepare for Luncheon Club duties. (The bowler hat has been dusted off and Clubman has promised no mercy.) Thomas was a relieved man to have survived thirty minutes of bending over, and could only mutter "Ooh, me back hurts" when asked how he felt. Radio Leicester were broadcasting live from Hind Leys, and an excited reporter could be heard screaming at the final whistle... "Phil Sims, Neil Parry, Steve Hughes, Mick Sullivan, Paul Wilkins, Andy Duncombe. Can you hear me Andy Duncombe? Your boys took a hell of a beating." The third team take a break from League action next week, Easter seeing Loughborough RFC go on a five day Tour to Essex where they will play South Woodham Ferrers RFC and Westcliff RFC. The next League game will be at home to Market Bosworth on 29th March. Captain Joe 'Dustin the Turkey' commented after; "The tarmac in the car-park at Hind Leys is nothing to do with me, no matter how bad it is." Luncheon Club Chairman Steve Hughes said; "Binge- Drinking is both an art and a science, but sheer guts can get you through. I expect Stinkies to be enthusiastic. There will be no room for sentiment." Beer Engineer Michael Wright added; "I can tell you nothing, it is top-secret. Don't even try to get anything out of me." Bring it on ! Posted by Animal

Referee / Saturday Isn't that the unexperienced guy that was changed for the Cosby game? I will be calling everyone today or tomorrow to fix up Saturday's team. I will be going for the same team as against Cosby as much as possible. Sorry to anyone who will be disappointed. There are a few forced changes, Whitters, Marso. Posted by Tref Bowen
