Unbeaten leaders will test Wirral

Oct 5 2007 by Our Correspondent, Liverpool Daily Post

BIG game in South Lancashire/Cheshire League One tomorrow shows Wirral, who have lost just once at home, facing unbeaten leaders Wilmslow.

Wirral show several changes after losing their way in the closing stages at Aspull last weekend. Adam Stevens comes into the back-row and Iuan Jones and Craig Harvey resume their half-back partnership. Ian White reverts to centre where he is joined by Colin Davies.

Wilmslow crushed Anselmians last week and will be in confident mood.

Anselmians look for a big improvement at home to Ruskin Park as they seek a first success. They will have to improve on a leeky defence if they are to have a chance of breaking the ice.

Widnes look to build on last week’s win at Ruskin Park when they entertain Sale. Liam Morton, Tom Farmer, Steve Vickerstaffe and Richie Barraclough are back in the reckoning as the Heath Road outfit come close to full strength.

Hoylake, boosted by a first win last Saturday, travel to Wigan and Aspull are due in the Isle of Man to take on Vagabonds.

Sefton at the head of Division Two show a couple of back division changes away to Oldershaw whom they beat in a cup competition at the start of the season. Colin Pascoe is back in the centre and David Carr resumes on the wing.

Wallasey in second place are due at Ormskirk with other fixtures including Warrington v Southport, Orrell Anvils v Dukinfield and Collegiate at Oswestry.

Mossley Hill welcome Isle of Man side Douglas in Division Three with away games for Ellesmere Port at Eagle, Prenton at Trentham and Parkonians at Moore.

It is another full league Saturday with Division Four fixtures including Merseyside Police v West Park Warriors who enjoyed their first success at the weekend, St Mary’s v Marple, Capenhurst at Knutsford and Port Sunlight at Congleton.
