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, […]

Broadfield Stadium, Leg 2, Saturday 16 Nov, 3pm. We resumed a 3-5-2 with OSullivan and Tutte missing out as Alex K and Sutton came in. The game was only a few minutes old when Wildig curled an effort just wide with the outside of his right boot. Stockton was released and as is now becoming […]

Leasing Cup, Tuesday 12 Nov, Globe Arena. So we are out of the Leasing Cup, and so are Carlisle, so this dead rubber saw us field a strong side and the Cumbrians make changes. They started well, Branthwaite, a leggy centre back at 17 making an impression. Both sides tried to keep the ball down […]

FA Cup, Saturday Nov 9, Bloomfield Rd, 3pm. This was seen as a free hit for the Shrimps as we had nothing to lose, in the end it was a free hit for the Pool as they romped home with ease, similar to the Leasing cup 5-1 hammering to be fair. A healthy nearly 1000 […]

Saturday, 2 Nov, League 2, Globe Arena 3pm. Well, nobody saw that coming? Did they? Jim jumps ship for non league and we end up with Baz n Kev taking charge and masterminding an improbable win to finally see three points at home, hurrah. Our temporary management team dropped themselves from the team, though Baz […]

The Shrimps travelled to deepest Essex to take on high flying Colchester with some decent performances but not many points. At last, they performed well and got what they deserved in a display many fans have said has been coming. In a first half, the away side took the game to the home team for […]

Saturday 12 October, Globe Arena, Lge 2, 3pm. The Bantams arrived with a wealth of experience, a hefty and vociferous following of over 1700 and some points to get. The Shrimps looked to halt a dismal run of defeats sprinkled with the odd draw here and there to claw back some points on the ever […]
