To all those Sileby Town mums out there. Thank you for everything you do for us to get us to games, training, events and give up their time to volunteer to help things at the club run smoothly. Have a Happy Mother's Day.

@Mylerdoo @FromLe2 Agreed. It doesn't help that he's not selecting Willis because he's off at the end of the season and, personally, I think the not selecting overseas players rule needs doing away with

[Dave King @dave_r_king4]

@FromLe2 Borthwick to go? I bloody hope so as what I've seen this tournament has been bloody awful

[Dave King @dave_r_king4]

@FromLe2 And Hayesy would probably also be in the cross hairs had we got another decent TH available, despite the fact he's had a good 6N. The drop off to Davison is stark and our depth at hooker is worrying, very worrying

[Dave King @dave_r_king4]

@FromLe2 Sadly, bar Hayes, the Tigers players appear to be easy and regular targets. I actually think he'd have made a huge difference with Spencer and his box kicking today. England's kicking with Mitchell at 9 and Ford at 10 was dire

[Dave King @dave_r_king4]

@Tigersimon1967 @FromLe2 Utter dross. Sorry to say, but Borthwick has to go. We've regressed. Our strength in depth in the front row hasn't helped but I genuinely don't think that him and Blackett are a good combination and moving Wig to D was utterly strange and hasn't worked. And selection...less said

@rollingmaulpod We started playing?

@LCFC Joey, from the halfway line....back in the day

[Dave King @dave_r_king4]

@FromLe2 They were talking about his fitness during comms for the game last Saturday and then Ilione came off the bench at HT for him so it can only be injury, surely?

[Sileby Town CC @silebytown]

More excellent progress on the pavilion extension over the last week!
