{{about|the club founded in 1906|the unrelated club which bore the same name between 1951-1968|Liverpool Stanley}}

Liverpool City was a semi-professional rugby league club. The club was based in the Stanley area of Liverpool, a metropolitan borough of Merseyside, England.

The club played in the Rugby League for one season only 1906-07.

History

Very little information is available about the club other than that it played in the Rugby League for the single season 1906-07 finishing in bottom place out of the 26 clubs (Pontefract had folded after only 8 games and their records were expunged, but even they had won 3 of these 8 matches)

Another club, also called Liverpool City was formed in 1951 when Liverpool Stanley changed their name and location. There is no connection between the two clubs.

Ground

The club played at the Stanley Athletics Ground. There are no indications on modern maps as to the exact location of this.

Club Colours

Very little has been written about the club's colours, but it is thought that the club played in blue and yellow.

Records

Club Scoring Record

There do not appear to be any actual details of the club records, probably because it never really had an opportunity to build any sort of fan base, but looking at the playing results (given later) there were many large defeats.

The club do hold, jointly, the record of playing a whole season without a win.

Notes and Comments

1 Pontefract disbanded after only 8 games and all their records, including this one were expunged.^[1]

2 The rules at the time stated that, although clubs arranged all their own fixtures, within certain parameters, one of these was that they had to play teams which they do play both home and away. The match against Bramley was expunged from the records as the return match was cancelled. Unfortunately for Liverpool City, the first match was a draw, which meant that had the return match have been played, they would have avoided the record of losing all matches.^[1]

3 - Lowerhouse Lane is the original site of the current ground used by Widnes. It was renamed Naughton Park in 1932 in honour of club secretary, Tom Naughton - and later renamed Halton Stadium after being completely rebuilt in 1997.
