250 up for Peter Wylie as Jacques eyes 200th appearance
Congratulations ro vice-captain Peter Wylie, who made his 250th Runcorm Linnets appearance yesterday.
It was a 222nd start for the stalwart defender, adding to his 28 outings as a substitute. Only Matt Atherton (313) and Kyle Hamid (261) have played more games in the Yellow & Green.
Skipper Jacques Welsh's next appearance will be his 200th. He's now on 178 starts +21 sub.
The attendance of 725 for the thrilling 4-2 league victory over Stalybridge was our highest crowd for a home game on the opening day of a season.
The previous best was 704 for the visit of Widnes on August 14th 2021, when we won 2-0 (likewise in NPL West)
