I know we hear about this kind of stuff all the time these days but the fans and staff have my sympathy.

Mine to. Hope it sorts out for them. It means every bit as much to their support as it would if it was us. Being a small club makes no difference, it’s their club .

Absolutely.

I know we've had our near-death experiences but being a club our size, with our location and fan base has surely helped that where it may not others.

Hope the best for them.

Hope they get through it

Lol, you've never been to Morecombe have you, I have, used to live in Kendal. It's a vast area with a huge dangerous bay(Chinese cockle pickers) a lovely viaduct across the bay, but local people are well spread out. Most are like Brighton supporters & support another team, tho, instead of Chelsea, it's more Utd, L'pool & a few Newcastle.

I’ve seen ‘The Bay’ on TV which is set in Morecombe, does that count? 😀

I actually remember you living in Kendal back in the day, shows how far we go back on here 😎
