Leigh Genesis FC
 

Leigh RMI have rebanded themselves as Leigh Genesis and have also gone full time to go with their new stadium. Shouldn't they try for a lucrative sponsorship deal with Phil Collins now?? ;)

what a waste of money that new ground is for them.

... and they'll always be bloody Horwich

Re: Leigh Genesis FC
 

I suppose it was inevitable that the Horwich link would be dropped once the football club relocated to Leigh. Quite sad to see the club lose the Railwaymen's Institute tag, although it lives on in Horwich with the harriers and cricket team.

Apparently, the name of Horwich RMI FC lives on. A new team was formed in 1996 and, after a few years in Eccles, are almost back playing in Horwich. See http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport...heir_roots.php. Good luck to 'em.

Re: Leigh Genesis FC
 

Just had a quick look at their website..STRUTH..what a stadium...guess they will be sharing with their rugby league team huh?

Good luck to them.

Re: Leigh Genesis FC
 

Yeh good luck to them

Looks like a great stadium + I like the way they offer season tickets with a free shirt offered! Maybe we could fo done that to get a few more people through the gates!!

Re: Leigh Genesis FC
 

I've been recommending that for two years as a way of the club saving the whole sum of discount offered on oearly bird incentives and a way of guaranteeing a certain amount of shirt sales BEFORE they go on sale
