Leigh RMI's upcoming Conference game away to former Football League outfit Shrewsbury Town has been re-scheduled in order to accommodate for the demands of Sky TV.

The Gay Meadow encounter has been moved from Saturday 6th March to Monday 8th March with an 8pm kick off, allowing Sky to televise the game live to the nation.

It is only the second time that RMI have been televised live in their history, with the only other time being the famous 2-0 home defeat to Fulham in an FA Cup First Round Replay in the 1998/99 season.
