And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg



A struggle to get excited for a club that's caused so many issues within the local community & caused upset for participants of other grass roots sports.

Used to play for Rylands ARLFC - many years ago - what has gone on there?

I know there’s been some crap going on, interested in some detail.

Big money owner of the football club came in, threw his weight about, small time bowlers, cricketers, RL players, general membership of the club, couldn't compete & got forced out of the club.

Club is a total shell of what it once was. Give it a few years & it'll have some nice detached homes on there. Just unfortunate that the residents won't have any recreation to enjoy in their spare time.

Officially merged, in reality they took over them, turning Fife Rangers into the Rylands Academy.. it was a merger in the way Hull & Gateshead 'merged'. icon_cool.gif

Horrible owner, hope they go bust extremely quickly. Got to be some sort of goon surely to post good luck to them on a Warrington rugby league forum given what went on with Rylands Rugby.

What a shame, heard the RL had gone downhill, didn’t realise what else had gone on. Was a cracking club, shame @dallas no need to be quite so judgemental.

I heard that the RL team had basically been scrapped and it's now just football?
I played a few times for Rylands 10 odd years ago and always enjoyed everything about the club.
I don't know much to be honest but heard something random that Wayne Rooney bought the club and made it just football, no idea how true that actually is though?
I miss playing rugby so much but at my age i think i'd get killed playing again icon_sad.gif These "kids" are massive nowadays ha ha ha

Rooney's agent, Paul Stretford, owns the club now. Even naming the bar after himself and one of the new stands on football pitch after his father.

Like I said previously, he came in a few years ago and basically forced all other sports and existing members out of the club.

Stretford sees himself as a small time Abramovich at non league level - they have been poaching players from higher divisions, by waving more cash under player's noses and generally making noises that are above their present level. I suspect his initial aim is to become the number one football club in the town above Warrington Town.

Hopefully, he fails.

Yep, 100% this. Hopefully it all fails and quickly.

Not at all, hope they get beat 10-0 and go bust for the way they dealt with the rugby team.

Back end of the 70's early 80's Paul Stretford played soccer in the midfield for Rylands, the midfield was M Murphy, K Murphy, M Murphy ( not a typo ) and Stretford.
