Morecambe

Glad that everyone's been paid at last, we've been in that position & our lads seemed to adopt almost a seige mentality similar to how your lot seem to be.
Good luck with the rest of it, hope it can be sorted & you can get rid of the vultures flocking around your club & come out the other side (of course when you do all this lovey dovey, best of pals stuff will revert back to the usual banter:))

P.s. - thanks for the favour of keeping Orient 5 points behind us :)

Anyone at a loose end on Saturday , the Shrimps are at home to Cambridge United and Skybet are paying for every spectator to have an award winning pie and a pint(or soft drink) on them.
There you are , about £6 in food and drink free !

thanks morecambe red. doing nothing saturday and my days of travelling over 500 miles to watch a game of football are well and truly over. might give it a go weather permitting.
 
It seems that the courts have now decided who actually owns Morecambe FC, good news eh?

Well it might be if the new owner's company wasn't currently being investigated by Durham police for fraud! You couldn't make it up - lots more unravelling to be done before the mess is sorted by the looks of things
 
Mr. Burnard, company is G50 Holdings based in north east somewhere. Sounds a terribly nice chap - previously been declared bankrupt twice, was in charge if Bedlington Terriers when they went bust & allegedly forged his dying father's signature in order to receive money from a will - lovely!

It is a mess and it goes back to the high court on 29/30 March.

Mr Burnard is an accountant/Tax adviser. Abdul is a client of his and in the last 4 months or so he has put £400,000 into Morecambe FC ! Diego has not put a penny in and yet is claiming he owns us !!

Its just amazing and a great credit to Jim Bentley with all this circus going on around him that we are now 6 points off the play-offs with 2 games in hand on them !

Glad you are riding through it MR :)
 
BREAKING: Brazilian businessman, Diego Lemos misses a court deadline in the disputed ownership of Morecambe FC (@ShrimpsOfficial)
 
2/3
A judge said Mr Lemos had to pay more than £86k in costs by 5pm today but @BBCLancashire understands no money has been paid. #SHRIMPS
 
Shrimps website has official statement that Lemos's claims have been dismissed and Graham Burnard, apparently acting for Al-Hashami, is now the sole owner of G50 Holdings, which owns majority of shares. Life goes on in the murky world of football finances. Glad for Morecambe fans that they have something to watch next season.
 
Don't think they're out of the woods yet, this is the same Mr.Burnard who's been declared bankrupt twice & has been at the centre of other dodgy dealings, think best they can hope for is that he doesn't really want to own the club & finds a decent buyer for it sooner rather than later
 
Originally at company's house him and lemos were directors of g50 holdings, somethings fishy and it's not the Morecambe air
