My first instinct tells me this could be the Potterie RLFC.
Or another Wigan club. Due to the fact that in the background you can see the railway line and the embankment. The backround looks very similar to where they used to play.
Just an inspired guess!
This was taken at Little lane and features the old Wigan Unionist RU team.Gordon Bennett, John Leyland and Eddie Caddick are three of the players I recognise
Is that the Gordon Bennett who use to run Highfield Bowling Club, Benny? Back row, extreme right...
This photo c/w with the sub heading from the paper and a couple of comments is in Album / Sports / Wigan Rugby Unionists along with a couple of other pics.

thanks chaps - much appreciated - John Leyland and Gordon were committee men at Aspull RUFC for many years - top blokes
The very same chap Jarvo. Next but one not him is Derek Stott
on the right of the front row is Dave Bamford.
