Chorley Football Club are hoping for a bumper crowd and some big name stars when Bolton Wanderers come to the Chorley Nissan Victory Park on Saturday.
Gary Megson's Premier League squad train a few miles away in Euxton and that won't be the only connection between the two clubs at the weekend.
Magpies chairman Ken Wright is a life-long fan of Bolton.
He told the Guardian: "I think they'll send quite a strong team. Bolton are my home town team and I go to watch them play when Chorley aren't in action.
"I did a bit of work with Gary Megson when he was at Stockport County and if we could get a four figure crowd on Saturday it would be Utopia for us."
Chorley come into the game on the back of a couple of low-key friendly wins against Nelson (3-1) and Ramsbottom United (1-0) and Wright said manager Tony Hesketh was doing a good job.
Saturday's game against Bolton Wanderers starts at 3pm. On Tuesday they're away at Daisy Hill, kick-off 7.30pm.
