Good turnout from the Leighers! Decent game, don't think you'll be wanting the referee or the linesman back anytime soon though.

Leythers, lad, Leythers! Are you going to our "home" game at Chorley tomorrow?

Oh dear, my bad.

I can't make it mate, I've been wanting to go to LSV and was all set but somethings cropped up. Guess Warrington will feel the backlash of that defeat and will come a cropper at Chorley's ground instead! Have you played at LSV this year!?

Matt Jansen was quite uninspiring on Friday, i've got a feeling he might make up for it mind.

You should have put money on that! Scored two, second one was an absolute pearler.

We played at LSV against Garforth (won 2-1) btw.

After a 10 point deduction, Frasley are up to zero points after six games.

And we've managed to put together a surprisingly good team in the process from the looks of things. Here's hoping.

Looked half decent against Ilkeston on Monday (especially the 11 who looked lightening quick on the break).

3-0 wasn't it to Leigh at one stage, and Town pull 2 back. Disappointing to lose, but Leigh are a good side in this league so not too disheartening.

Still won the major one though

Nantwich at home next round, there 4th in the above league, going to be one major cup shock if we did it!

That's great, but it's not non-league football.

FC currently in fifth place in the Unibond Premier League. Three wins on the bounce have put us up there after starting with two defeats and a draw. Kendal away on Saturday, will be a tough game.

Should have won about 7-1 to be quite honest mate, we missed a hatful of chances while Mottram made a couple of decent saves. Switched off towards the end with the penalty and deflected goal - certainly summat for us to work on.

Should be a good pay day for you against Nantwich, even if only a certain percentage of their regular home support turns up.

City sat in 9th with 11 from 7. Unconvincing start but the lads seem to have turned a corner in the last week or so with a gritty win at Gateshead when down to ten and an exceptional home performance in beating Histon 3-1. Will be interesting to see how we go as we have a good team but the jury is still out on the manager.

You lads follow Leigh Genesis? Did they replace RMI or just change the name? once went to an RMI game against Vauxhall Motors, entertaining fixture watched by a mighty 100 or so people. I hear they have made a few interesting signings?

Was a name change last season - we're 7th in UniBond One North at the moment. Managed by Garry Flitcroft (ex Blackburn, Man City and England U21), got Matt Jansen (ex Blackburn, Bolton, England U21) playing for us this season along with a few decent names in terms of local non-league etc.

Currently in dispute with Leigh Sports Village though as they've decided 48 hours between fixtures on the pitch just isn't long enough for it to recover!
