Scunthorpe U 3-0 Shrimps
- On October 4, 2019
- In Commentary
Saturday 14 Sept 2019, League 2 3pm Glanford Park. So we arrived just above The Irons with some patchy draws and a win but Scunthorpe hadn’t had a win in 16 games trailing all the way back to last season and their relegation. We started brightly, with some neat football, a powder puff effort from […]

At our AGM in July 2019 the Football Club made a couple of appeals to the Trust and the wider Morecambe fan base for financial support. One of these appeals was for funding towards some “essential equipment” for the Club to support the first team, including exercise bikes. The Trust put this to an on-line […]

Tangerines 5-1 Shrimps
- On September 4, 2019
- In Commentary
Tuesday 3 Sept 2019. 7.30pm, Leasing Cup, Bloomfield Rd. In a much changed Shrimps side, another heavy defeat ensued, though the open and attractive game score doesn’t tell the whole story. Blackpool made 9 changes to their side, Jim changed 6, despite this the flowing game of attack and defence which we witnessed was, apart […]

Robins 3-1 Shrimps
- On September 4, 2019

Saturday 31 Aug 2019, County Ground, Lg 2 3pm. We travelled more in hope than expectation as our record against Swindon both home and away is pretty hopeless. The best we have ever managed has been a 1-1 draw away thanks to a Vadaine equaliser a couple of seasons ago, other than that its been […]

Burton 4-0 Shrimps
- On August 29, 2019

Tues 27 Aug 2019, 7.45 Carabao Cup 2nd Rd. Our interest in this competition ended as we faced a determined and talented Nigel Clough’s Burton at the Pirelli Stadium who, on the night, were just too good. Last seasons semi finalists were taking this very seriously indeed, making one change from the side that played […]

Shrimps 2 -3 Exeter
- On August 29, 2019

Sat 24 Aug 2019, Globe Arena Lg 2. Since that memorable day at Wembley in 07, our paths have crossed a few times, strangely with our best results coming at St James’s Park in Devon rather than our home patch. And so it proved again on a beautiful summer Saturday at the Globe. Both sides […]

Macc 0-1 Shrimps
- On August 21, 2019

Tuesday 20 August. Moss Rose , 7.45pm Lge 2. As away evenings go, Macc is nearby, friendly and like us, welcoming. They have suffered Big Sol walking away but have had a good start to the season and in the first half it showed. Brewitt replaced Kenyon and Miller and Stockton started their first game […]

Saturday 17 August, Globe Arena 3pm. After two tricky away ties at Mansfield, one in League 2 the other in the League Cup, avoiding defeat in both games and getting through on pens in the latter, it was time for a home game v Cheltenham. In a tricky and swirling wind on a warm August […]
