heard morecambe manager saying cole stockton going back to tranmere and was on about bringing new faces to the club so obviously there,s no transfer embargo but is he just saying what people want to hear.

They're allowed loan deals I think but only if they don't promote any youth players

This is where the FA should step in with the club and administrators. It would be an absolute tragedy if Morecambe go out of business. The FA have failed in their duty to the fans of the club by not being far more thorough on researching the new owners, This should be compulsory for all clubs owners or majority shareholders.

F.A. is simply what it stands for as far as i'm concerned.

fit and proper person etc. they,ve got in in place but seem only to use it against british people. a couple of years ago a guy who was the previous chairman at doncaster along with louis tomlinson out of some famous boy band wanted to take the club over as they were deemed not fit and proper people.

I seem to remember it was more a case of being unable to raise the readies, I don't remember them being deemed unfit to buy

sounds like were back to morecambe owners. do think you,re right however about the doncaster situation but it does seem funny to me that a lot of clubs owned by foreign investors just bring hassle to their fans and nothing more.

We seem to be on the same plain, Lemos must have convinced the FA that funds were available for them to give the sale the go-a –head to buy the club but it now appears Lemos is only interested in the leisure & hotel facilities that was part of the sale

Is it ironic that in the midst of all that's going on they're today playing Notts County who had a similar thing happen a few years ago, some foreign 'investor' waltzed in & persuaded them he could give them the world - even went so far as to bring in Sven Goran Eriksson & sign Sol Campbell, all based on false promises as the money just wasn't there but the damage he did left them in millions of poundsworth of debt

notts county are still a mess off the field but seems to have grown to on field problems. they look a complete shambles at least morecambe will give it everything on the pitch. notts county to follow lord didsbury,s local side into oblivion.

But that was us! ......and we came through it.

Horrific as it was for us at least it was a little simpler, we owed the taxman money & if we couldn't pay that would've been curtains. Ok, we had certain individuals at the time trying to pull the wool over our eyes as to what was going on but it looks a lot more complicated up the road - all sorts coming out now & goodness knows how they'll unravel the mess
Genuinely hope they come out the other side as we did
