Sat 7 March, 3pm, Rodney Parade, Lge 2. What can I say about this match? For those who were there it was instantly forgettable. sharing a home ground with a professional Rugby Union side is always going to be difficult, particularly when they play a home game on a Friday night, the night before this […]

Brunton Park, Sat 22 Feb, 3pm, Lge 2. Windy February continues as we encounter another gale force day at a flooded Cumbria, but happily the barriers keep the excellent Brunton Park pitch in top condition. We lose the toss and kick into the teeth of the gale, both sides taking time to settle. Slew releases […]

Blundell Park, Sat 15 Feb, 3pm, Lge 2. The newly improved Mariners under Holly Holloway, took on the ever improving DA’s Shrimps in another wind tunnel at Blundell Park. 63 hardy fans made the trip to see if we could finally put paid to our recent profligate away record on a day when it was […]

Tuesday 11 Feb, Globe Arena, 7.45pm. Lge 2. Tonight was the chance to really put the cat amongst the pigeons and lift ourselves to the heady heights of 22nd and leapfrog our visitors from Cheshire.

Shrimps 1-1 Stags
- On February 25, 2020

As well fancied, well funded and star studded Mansfield arrived at the Globe, they stood just three places above us in the table. Something that has made them sack one manager and appoint another, to be real advantage so far it has to be said. In a wind affected half, both sides struggled a little […]

Cheltenham Tn 2-1 Shrimps

As we attempted to shoot down the high flying Robins at Whaddon Rd our away record needed to sharpen up and the profligate defending ushered out. It began well, with both sides attacking in numbers and the first chances came the away sides way. A shot from Phillips from range whizzed over into the away […]

Shrimps 1-1 Cambridge Utd

Saturday 25 Jan, Globe Arena, Lge 2 ,3pm. As we found ourselves back at the bottom, it was imperative that we continue the progression made under DA and take something from this game. Weirdly, it was possibly our worst performance in some time, and against more dangerous opposition we could have suffered. However, Cambridge dominated […]

Cobblers 4-1 Shrimps
- On January 19, 2020
- In Commentary
False dawn? Possibly. Our recent away form proved difficult to shake off as the Cobblers proved ruthless on the day to tear into the recent revival. An unchanged starting 11 gave consistency, the only change being new keeper Mafoumbi on the bench. The Shrimps first chance was hammered over by Slew who was a little […]

Tuesday 14 Jan 2020, Globe Arena, 7.45pm. Another change, Tanner comes in at left back for the unlucky Conlan, otherwise it’s the same new faces. Another gorgeous evening on the Lancashire Riviera, as it had been tipping it down all day, but the pitch looked amazing considering, well done Chesh and his team. We won […]

Weds 1st Jan 2020, Valley Parade, Lge 2, 3pm. We are in this position, languishing in 23rd place, because of many things. Poor results, lack of investment, poor recruitment, daft sendings off and not taking chances. Today, the difference between the side chasing automatic promotion and the one fighting to stay out of non -league, […]
