yes we do,but if the town can't substantiate it then there is no point, the townsfolk won't pay for it, can you?



Morecambe as a town has roughly the same population as Accrington but does not have a Premiership and Championship club within 5 miles either side - sure it has Blackpool and Preston a little further afield but not quite as close as we have to suffer. Also they stopped in the Conference for about 12 years and spent all of the nineties and some of the eighties and noughties at least two leagues apart from us. They have had larger amounts of money for longer periods of time than we have and quite rightly should be better set up than us. The new ground they are building will be self funding apparently but as a town it can incorporate a hotel - we couldn't, it will incorporate a McDonalds - we couldn't, it will have floodlit community playing fields - our Council wouldn't allow it, their Community Team has been running for years and has about 500 kids signed up at any one time - we haven't as we haven't even been running a year yet.

So never mind about 'the trouble with you lot' - it's the trouble with numpties like you that we need to worry about. Impatient, jumped up brats with no life that think nowt better than belittling everything about the club they claim to support.

Nob off up to Barrow where you'd fit in better.

Well said! Go Macca..... Go Macca.....
