Another club about to fold ?

It's really sad that this can happen to any club, still remember poor Bury FC.

So very sad

Life and soul torn out of the community if they go under.
When I think back to when Ipswich went into administration and then the 20 odd years after this was bad enough. Only good thing about Marcus Evans was he kept Ipswich afloat

Wasn't aware they had a team. Not sure even sure when Morecambe is but somehow figure North-West England, maybe Blackpool area.

Pity is just about everyone outside of their own club name set-up just won't care or totally indifferent whether they survive or not or what they get up to. It's just not relevant to them or a situation so obscure (that) whatever goes on there just meets with a certain apathy or indifference.

Yes it's a shame they're in some jeopardy there but every chance they could continue. Dime a dozen instances of supposed club names in peril or about to fold yet they survive or are rescued, continue to operate et cetera. Somehow imagine the fanbase in question lean towards support of more recognized names in vicinity i.e. Merseyside, Manchester club teams etc than Morecambe itself.
