making it to 300 appearances tomorrow. Rob has been at the club from a very young age and played through all the age groups. He is Mr Wirral and deserves all the recognition he receives. Well done Rob!

1/2 Everyone at Wirral Club are Incredibly sad at the passing of Brendan Bailey. He was a integral part of the club , traveling up and down the country every Saturday with the first team running the line and sorting kit with Richard.
He started the Wirral’s womens touch league, He worked endlessly in the development of young players from Saturday mornings at Wirral Grammar to Sunday afternoons for Cheshire. He was much more than a rugby man, he was our friend. He will be sorely missed by everyone at the club.
Saturday sees the end of an era as Ryan Stead retires from Wirral 1st team duties. His last game on Saturday will be his 190th appearance for the first team!
Well done Steady!
Enjoy the game and more importantly enjoy the beers after it, you deserve it.

NEW SIGNING!!! We are pleased to welcome Thomas Cole to Wirral who has arrived from Derry. We are looking forward to seeing him play once we can get going again.
Congratulations to Rob Pearl who scored his 100th first team try this past weekend. Massive achievement! Rob has played for the club all his life and is a product of the academy. His next achievement, if he stays fit is his 300th first team appearance.

RFU confirms that competitive rugby will not return until January 2021 at the earliest. 😭
We will continue to be positive, train hard and prepare ourselves for whatever happens next.
We remain at stage D of the roadmap so let’s sit tight and wait for the next announcement.
A good season back after a torrid few years with Covid. Congratulations to

Huge thanks to the senior colts who came to Sixways on Saturday. I think everyone who was there would be in agreement that our crowd noise wouldn’t of been half as loud if it hadn’t been for them. You could of made the difference for the win 🏆 ‘it’s all gone quiet over there’
Wirral face Kirkby Lonsdale this weekend. Wirral are looking to make it 5 from 5 after another win last week at home to Rossendale.
