This summer marks a very rare international outing for Nostell Miners Welfare football club. Match Secretary, Ralph Wainwright, can be seen donning the black and yellow jersey on the home pitch of Austrian Bundesliga side - SK Sturm Graz - who he was visiting in order to watch a pre-season game. Ralph's visit marks a memorable day in the clubs history, as other than the North of England, Nostell are generally an unknown entity. The club hopes to increase their stature with these stadium images, and these aspirations have been aided by the article of Ralph's exploits, which was published in a Austrian newspaper.
