Opposition View: Mark Shore's "Get Out of Our Club" Message to Morecambe's Owner


Chris

Introduction:

Name: Mark Shore.

How long have you supported Morecambe? 21-years.

Are you a season ticket holder? Yes.

Age? 35.

Favourite Player? Danny Carlton.

How do you feel about Morecambe’s current position in League Two, and what do you think are the main factors contributing to their struggles this season?

I am not happy with us being bottom of the league. We play well, but things are not going our way. All this is because of our owner, Jason Whittingham.

How did the transfer embargo affect the team’s ability to strengthen the squad, and what impact do you think it has had on their overall performance?

It is hard to sign players under a transfer embargo. Signing 15 players in one day is challenging.

What are your views on the management and coaching staff’s approach to the season, and do you think any changes are needed to improve results?

It was out of his control, Adam's hand, because he doesn't know how much money he can spend on players.

How do you see the rest of the season unfolding for Morecambe, and what are your expectations for the team’s performance in the upcoming matches?

I hope we finish mid-table. I hope we can get 6 points in the next 3 games.

How do you think Notts County’s defence will handle Morecambe’s attacking threats in the upcoming match?

I think Notts County's defence will handle it fine.

Which player from Notts County do you believe will make the most impact in the game against Morecambe, and why?

Jacob Bedeau, I think he will because he is an ex-Morecambe player. Dan Crowley too.

What role do you think the club’s leadership and board have played in the current situation, and what actions do you believe they should take to address the issues?

Just make sure our owner sells the club. At the moment, he doesn't want to sell it. JASON WHITTINGHAM, GET OUT OF OUR CLUB AND SELL THE CLUB!

Final comments from Chris

Fans might be thinking that the game will be routine from the Notts perspective, although I expect Morecambe to put a strong performance. Defensively, Morecambe can struggle from set pieces and corners which is something I would like to see magpies make use of. I fully expect Morecambe to attempt to disrupt our passing play, with them trying to mount attacks on the break. If Notts control the game and create good scoring opportunities, it could see a number of goals but even if this is the case - Morecambe have the ability to shut teams out or make the opposition work. My prediction would be 3-0 to Notts.

I wish Morecambe fans all the best, and hope their season picks up.

Read our latest article on Pride of Nottingham, where 15-year-old Kameron Muir makes history as Notts County’s youngest-ever player in the Magpies’ 2-1 win over Burton Albion.

Head over to Pride of Nottingham and share your thoughts on this weekend's game against Morecambe, as Notts County aims to bounce back and return to winning ways.

it sounds like morecambe are having ownership problems which could be the worst outcome for them with the way the seasons progressing, i wish them well. we have been here before, where owners have no idea and literally split the fan base in half. leading to the club falling to the wrong end of league two. its a shame to see this happening to morecambe.

It sounds like the Morecambe fan has already given Notts the points. Defensively, Notts might be in a better position, but we can’t underestimate them. Control the game and play our usual approach. Hopefully, we come away with the points without leaving Morecambe in a worse state. Out of the teams in League Two, they are not one I wish relegation on. It’s always made for a great away game.

You can sense that Morecambe are in deep trouble right now. Their start to the season isn’t what they managed, and perhaps under new ownership, the club can turn things around. I don’t know. I think it’s clear that the issues involving their embargo have led them to some dire trouble. As fans who have experienced this, it’s not nice to see another team experiencing ownership troubles.

It doesn’t sound good if they don’t know how much they can spend on players. Their owners made a mistake, which led to the embargo. It seems like they are in crisis. I wonder if life in League One stretched their limits? It’s not good for them.

It seems they have been poorly managed and badly run by their owner. I don’t understand how the confusion over payments could happen. It shows a lack of understanding of running a football club as a business.

It’s never nice to see a club in this sort of turmoil. Morecambe is a fantastic away game, and since becoming an EFL club, they have done remarkably well. It would be a shame to see their current owner undo all the hard work and put them in a situation where relegation is looming. It’s early days, as Stall keeps reminding us.

Yet the signs aren’t good. For Notts, the timing couldn’t be any better with their form being so poor and their squad morale being low. All Notts can do is play their best and try to leave with the points. I wish Mark and Morecambe well.

Morecambe may seem to be in trouble at the moment & have their problems, but Notts must concentrating on doing a professional job on Saturday.

We've seen in the past that teams that have problems can spring surprises. Morecambe showed a lot of character a few days ago after being 0:2 down & fighting back for a draw.

Notts need to play at their best & field a strong team. Jatta & Jones may be missing, but Notts can still get a positive result on Saturday.

Hope Morecambe can turn things around ownership wise. I wish them well, apart from Saturday and return game at Meadow Lane. However, we can't take things for granted and think we've only got to turn up. COYP
