CITIZEN reporter Kristian Jack and photographer Robert Underdown, pictured, are to appear in the media team at Preston North End's open day this Saturday.

However when Robert, known for his goalkeeping skills, was told to get in the nets he got a little confused and picked up his cricket bat!

Still it's supposed to be summer so we'll let him off - but it doesn't look good for the media team whose goalie uses a cricket bat.

The match, against a former PNE players' select, will take place at 1pm. Other attractions include a PNE players autograph session, a fairground and the official opening of the Bill Shankly stand.

The stadium opens at 11am with admission prices £1 for adults and 50p for concessions.
