Phil Thompson - Friday 26th June

Upton Cricket Club are pleased to announce the details for the North Wests premier Sportsman's Dinner.

Now in our 15th year of hosting this event, the evening will be held in the Grand Marquee on the pitch and this year we are privileged to welcome former Liverpool & England international Phil Thompson to Old Greasby Road.

Phil made 340 appearances for the Reds, playing as a defender for the Liverpool team of the 1970s and 1980s. During this time, he also represented England on 42 occasions. After retiring as a player, he later served Liverpool as assistant manager and, during the 2001–02 season, acted as caretaker for 6 months while manager Gérard Houllier was ill. He is currently a pundit on the hugely popular Soccer Saturday on Sky Sports where he can be seen most Saturday afternoons getting animated alongside the other panelists.

To compliment our main act, Phil will be joined by a top local comedian and compere and our guests will enjoy a three course meal and complimentary wine with waiter service for drinks meaning you can enjoy the evening without having to stray to far from your table.

Tickets are priced at £45 each and either individual tickets or tables of 5 or 10 are available.

To purchase tickets, or for more information please contact Jez Lamb on 07887 743 230 or via email

It would be extremely helpful if tickets could be purchased as early as possible as it helps hugely with the planning.
