AS the dust settles on their title win, Warrington Rylands have received a message of congratulations from a legend of English football.
Stuart Pearce - a keen Warrington Wolves fan - said it was nice to see another of the town's teams doing well after Dave McNabb's side won the Northern Premier League's West Division.
It means they will play in the NPL Premier Division - the same league as cross-town neighbours Warrington Town - next season after their third promotion in four years.
As a big @WarringtonRLFC fan, Stuart was keen to congratulate @RylandsFC for continuing their rapid rise 🔥

A second successive promotion means last season's FA Vase winners will play in the @NorthernPremLge Premier Division come August 👏 pic.twitter.com/LweEHRJPij
Meanwhile, Blues' top goalscorer Kane Drummond is in the running for a league award voted for by supporters.
The 19-goal forward is one of 10 players in contention for the Pitching In NPL Supporters Player of the Season prize.
