Bring a friend...or four!

The Sky Sports cameras will be in attendance at the Leigh Sports Village Stadium as Leigh Genesis continue their charge for the promotion play-offs, and the club are offering a unique offer for season ticket holders to give their friends a piece of the action.

After Saturday's resounding 2-0 home win over Woodley Sports secured a third successive victory for Garry Flitcroft's side, Genesis are just five points off a play-off position as the season nears it's conclusion, and the Sky Sports cameras will be visiting the Leigh Sports Village Stadium as part of a production that focuses on former Premier League players. In Leigh's case, it will focus on manager Flitcroft, who made almost four hundred Premier League appearances for Manchester City and Blackburn Rovers, along with former England Under 21 striker Matt Jansen, who has scored nine goals in twenty eight Leigh appearances this season, alongside his work on the club's coaching staff.

With Genesis taking on struggling Ossett Albion at the Leigh Sports Village Stadium this Saturday (20th March, 3pm kick off), the club's season ticket holders will be able to bring up to four guests to the fixture at half the normal admission price, meaning it will cost just £4 for each extra adult, £2.50 for an extra student or over 65 and just £1 for any additional juniors.

Tickets are on sale now at the Leigh Sports Village Stadium Ticket Office, costing £8 for adults, £5 for students and over 65's and just £2 for under 18's for those who aren't guests of existing season ticket holders.

Rather than spending your Saturday afternoon with Jeff Stelling and his team, witness real football in the flesh and bring your family down to the LSV and enjoy the day at your local club.

Are they filming the game or just doing a documentary? If they film the game will keep an eye out for it over the weekend.

Also, you need the maximum number of flags behind the goal!! It might attract a camera or 2.

I'm supposed to be working on Saturday which will affect flag chances, but trying to get the day off.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe that they are planning to film some of the game - think it's part of a 'Premier League World' programme?

Because I had the request from them a few weeks ago and it's been confirmed that they will be filming this weekend - think it's for a piece on summat called 'Premier League World'?

Anything similar to the Woodley game would be encouraging, I reckon, especially as I'd hope that Ossett will bring a few more away fans with them and hopefully bump it over 200.
