LEIGH RMI received a double boost this week when they signed Wigan Athletic full-back Ian Pendlebury and extended Mark Ford's loan to the end of the season.
The Bolton born 19-year-old has been released by the Second Division leaders after only making a handful of first team appearances in his spell with the Latics.
Ford, who has been at RMI for the past month, extended his loan deal with Doncaster until the end of the season.
Manager Mark Patterson was delighted with the double signing saying: "Pendlebury gives me an option on the left side, while Ford has done well in the middle for me. We have started to pick up points while he has been here."
