Chairman Dominic Speakman
Leigh Genesis, still reeling from news that chairman and financial backer Dominic Speakman has quit the club, will attempt to put a side together for their clash with Cammell Laird at Chorley’s Victory Park.
Manager Steve Bleasdale has vowed to carry on unpaid in the short term and hopes that most of the squad will follow suit as the club’s supporters try to put together a rescue package.
With £3,000 up for grabs to the winners of the tie there is an incentive for the players who do turn out to make amends for the defeat at Laird two weeks ago in the league.
