Workington Town's fixture on Sunday 27th June will now kick off at 1pm, this should enable fans to watch both the Town game and England World Cup game.

Workington Town would like to thank South Wales for their help in allowing this amendment.

Everyone at the club is shocked and devastated to hear this unbelievable and tragic news. Garry Purdham was quite simply a gentleman and a real pleasure to know.

As a player he was as honest and industrious on the pitch as indeed he was off it. He would think nothing of doing a stint on the farm before turning up to play professional rugby league.

He had a wonderful, calm and mature temperament coupled with a dry sense of humour and as a result was one of those players that his team mates looked up to. He had the respect of the whole rugby league community in West Cumbria, and will be missed by all involved in it.

Our thoughts and very much with all Garry’s family at this very sad time

Dave Bowden

Chairman

Malcolm Allison said "Darren will be coming in as cover for the hookers he will also give us that much needed guidence around the park." Holt took park in his first training session last night. Unfortunatley Darren will be unavailable for the skolars game but should make his dubut infront of the derwent park faithful against Doncaster.
