Liverpool were initially granted the 14:00pm (BST) slot on Sunday afternoon, but due to playing their final Champions League game on Tuesday, a decisive match at Anfield against high-flying Napoli which in theory determines the winners of Group A, Liverpool had to instead face Leeds United on Saturday night, a fixture they lost 2-1 in the dying seconds.

LIVE: Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest match updates from the Emirates Stadium However Sky were only afforded three of the four possible slots for this weekend's action with BT showing the early Saturday kick-off between Leicester and Manchester City. Sky had their usual 17:30 (BST) slot of Fulham versus Everton and then are showing their headline game between Manchester United and West Ham United at 16:30 (BST) on Sunday afternoon, meaning there is no room for Arsenal versus Forest. Arsenal, like West Ham and Manchester United, can only play on Sundays due to their Europa League commitments on Thursday evenings. Most recently this fixture saw Arsenal fall to a 2-0 defeat away to PSV Eindhoven, meaning Arteta's side will be keen to make amends back on home turf. Instead now showing on Sky Sports' Main Event channel at 14:00pm (BST) is the ICC Men's T20 Cricket World Cup match between India and South Africa broadcasted between 10.
Pre-match Lunch - 2nd XV vs CaldyThis Saturday sees our 2nd XV entertaining the mighty Caldy 2nd XV in the Premier North West League. Unbeaten in 5 seasons Caldy travel the short distance to the Memorial Ground, where Wirral will be waiting to create history, by trying to beat the unbeatable. After a poor start we have improved immensely and come to terms with this fantastic League, last week we achieved a brilliant 31-29 victory at Rossendale and now onto our old foes, but respected neighbours. Caldy 1st team are playing Nottingham away on Friday evening, so they have guaranteed us a big contingent of support for their 2s.

In recognition of both teams we have organised a pre match luncheon at 1. 00pm, the bar will be open from 12pm, so come early for some banter and libation. Tickets will be £15. 00, and Rob will serve up his usual excellent 2 course meal. Please contact me, Mark Gidman or Ben Cornford for tickets, replies no later than Thursday please. Matt Cairns, the ex-England, Sale, Saracens and Harlequins hooker will be attending the meal and will do a Q&A before the game. Matt, as you know, coached at Wirral and revolutionised the club, before leaving to go to Caldy.
