LEIGH RMI will find themselves £20,000 better off and in with a chance of drawing a Football League club if they can see off Worksop Town in the final qualifying round of the FA Cup tomorrow.
The winners of the Hilton Park tie will receive a £20,000 windfall - their share of revised cup cash handouts from the FA - as well as going into Saturday afternoon's televised First Round draw.
But Worksop are a potential banana skin for RMI whose inconsistent home form has been their major downfall this season. The Nottinghamshire side are currently in the running for UniBond Premier Division title and with it promotion to the Nationwide Conference.
They are treating tomorrow's game seriously with player/manager Chris Waddle 'spying' on RMI at last week's Hilton Park win over Woking. Leigh boss Steve Waywell is taking things equally seriously, leaving RMI in the hands of assistant Dave Miller last week while he watched Worksop in their game at Colwyn Bay.
