An understregth Vagabonds took a bit of a hiding away at Wirral, going down 64-8 in EuroManx South Lancashire/Cheshire Division One.
Vagas were missing a number of their regular back line and then had three late withdrawals due to illness.
In the end, just 15 players made the trip to the Wirral which was further disrupted when their flight was delayed.
All in all, a day to forget for Vagas who will be hoping for better things when Hoylake visit Glencrutchery Road.
