Calling all sports fans - Warrington Town have their biggest game in recent history in a top of the table clash with old rivals Curzon Ashton tomorrow (Tuesday) kick off 7.45pm at the HG Driver Recruitment Stadium.
The game has attracted national coverage on the BBC and is expected to draw a decent crowd with Warrington currently top of the table, five points clear of Curzon who have three games hand.
Should be a great sporting occasion and great atmosphere under the floodlights.
I know a good number of rugby fans who will be showing for support - the more the merrier.
Same songs, same colours, same Town!

They claim to be known as 'The Wire' for that reason I'm out. It's also Fannyball :/

how many go up from the division?

Are they still looking to move to a new stadium? As Omega would have been perfect for that!

I see Wire as Warrington's nickname, that is Warrington the whole place not just the team.

I was more disappointed in the programme 'The Wire', although it depicted Orford and Bewsey, they chose to film it in America. Surely we could have done with the tourism that would have brought in had it actually been filmed here.

Started listening to the Non League podcast as they had Shaun Reid on. What national coverage was/is there, Gary? Was it just the 606 podcast or is there something else planned?

2 0 up early on and it got abandoned after 29 mins floodlight failure. harsh on them. hopefully win when its replayed

I have no interest in soccer these days and the rather strange, forced use of the 'wire' moniker irritates me. However you can't fault the effort and passion from the people running the club these days.

A couple of years ago I was invited to their end of season dinner and had a great night, all the best to them.

What do you do for a living GO?

Work for a finance broker currently, tedium is the word to describe it!

Just intrigued as you find out a lot about the game (the background stuff), not complaining but thought you may have been employed in RL in some way.

No, have always said that I wouldn't like to mix work and pleasure. I enjoy leaving work at 5 on a Friday and heading over to the HJ, I don't think it would be the same if you worked in the game. I just seem to know a few people who are in the loop, though I wouldn't say I know a lot!
