The pair began their challenge at 10.20pm yesterday, and aim to crack the 24 hours and one minute record at half time at tonight’s Oldham Athletic v Leyton Orient match at Boundary Park.
Salford University students Faisal (18) and Azeem (21), volunteered for the recordbreaking feat to herald the countdown to Oldham’s new £17 million radiotherapy centre opening next Tuesday.
