Downies claimed victory in the second game of Workington’s mass no rules football game.

Uppies and Downies – played in the town for hundreds of years – took place today, Tuesday April 2.

The first game saw Uppie John Irving hail the ball at the gates of Workington Hall on Good Friday but Downie Dan Fryer equalled the score at the Prince of Wales Dock.

Dan hailed his first ball in 2022.

It means it is all to play for in the third and final game on Saturday – we’ll be bringing you all the action from it as it happens. Join us here from 6pm.

You can read our coverage of Good Friday’s game here and see photos from the game here.

  • An Uppies and Downies player suffered a medical episode during Tuesday’s game and was taken to Carlisle’s Cumberland Infirmary for treatment. He is said to be in a serious condition.
