Leigh RMI vs. Barrow preview

By Matt Lawton February 28 2008
This coming Saturday seems RMI welcome Barrow to Hilton Park for a vital Blue Square North encounter, with another large crowd anticipated following the reduction of admission prices (£7 for adults, £4 for OAP's and students and just £1 for Under 16's).

Although RMI fell to a 5-2 defeat at in-form play-off chasers Burscough on Tuesday evening, they welcome Barrow with a degree of confidence in the side after already defeating Barrow earlier in the season, Dan Owen and Kevin Rapley scoring in a 2-1 victory at Holker Street in August.

With centre back Rob Marsh-Evans starting a two game suspension following his sending off in the loss to Gainsborough Trinity, recent loan signing Matt Lawlor, a debutant at Victoria Park on Tuesday evening, is set to move to the centre of the back four with Owen Roberts, Andy Wright and the returning Andy Heald competing for the two spaces on RMI's left hand side.

Barrow's last outing last weekend brought a 1-1 draw at home to Blyth Spartans, while a 2-1 victory at strugglers Hinckley United their last away fixture was secured with an injury time strike.

With the game another vital one in RMI's quest to avoid relegation, as much support as possible is required so make sure that you take advantage of the reduced prices and make yourselves heard on the terraces on Saturday!
