Leigh Genesis will travel to UniBond League Division One North side Curzon Ashton in the First Qualifying Round of the FA Cup after the Tameside club were 4-0 victors at home to Runcorn Linnets in this afternoon's final preliminary round of the competition.

The tie will be played at Curzon's Tameside Stadium home in Ashton-under-Lyne on Saturday 13th September with a 3pm kick off.

It is the first time that Leigh have played at this stage of the competition since Lee Cryer's goal secured a 1-0 victory over Accrington Stanley, at the time in the lower reaches of the non-league pyramid, at Hilton Park in September 1997.

Got a feeling there's a bit of an ex-RMI contingent at Curzon though I could be wrong.
