After Hilton Park failed a pre-season pitch inspection, Leigh's first two 'home' games of the season, against Ashton United and Ilkeston Town, had to be played at Chorley's Victory Park home.
Since then, Hilton Park's pitch has been brought up to UniBond League standards and therefore fit to host this evening's fixture against local rivals Prescot Cables.
However, due to a complication with Leigh Centurions Reserves having a home play-off fixture on Saturday, and Genesis' preferred alternative venue of Atherton Laburnum Rovers being unavailable, Leigh's fourth home game of the season will now take place at Stainton Park.
As far as the rest of the season is concerned, Leigh Centurions are aware that Leigh Genesis intend to play all of their home fixtures at Hilton Park, at least until the move to the new stadium at the Leigh Sports Village is authorised, and as such a similar situation should not arise in future.

Why oh why won't WMBC give us a safety certificate for one stand at the LSV?!
