6 years ago tonight ( well last night but the 10th) was the 1st game at The Globe.

Who was it we beat?

Coventry City 2-0 in the League Cup. 2 goals for Fleming.

Mixed emotions for Outsider.

Bit of a rush to get there too I believe Paul?!

Midway through the family holiday in Devon. 330 mile each way drive....... Just about made amends with Mrs O,

Blimey, you've done well,

I'd still be on the deaf and dumb pie...!!!!

Who supplied the cross for Fleming to score the first ever goal at the Globe against Coventry?

Rundle assisted Flemmo twice that night

Is the correct answer!

Think Flem misses him, lol

In an all time Morecambe Team of Most Frustrating Players then Andy Fleming would be first on my list.

He has many positives - covers a lot of ground, can tackle and win the ball back, and is skilful on the ball.
But unfortunately, far too inconsistent and goes "missing" during games, too many sideways and backwards passes when he could play a more penetrating ball.
Should score a lot more goals than he does from the position he plays too.
Maybe with Rose and Murphy there this season, he may be able to play further forwards and be the player I thought he was back in 2010.

All of this! Well, nearly all, Beckham & Giggs' mate Dave Gardner would be at the top of the list. But then, if he played consistently at his best, he'd never have come to Morecambe...

I always think back to Southend away a few seasons back, where he ran the show, passing sublimely, and scored two goals, one a cracker from outside the area. I keep waiting for 'that' Fleming to make another appearance.

That's it in a nutshell Keith. Why can't he play like that more often?
I wouldn't expect him to play well every game, but it's only about twice a season that we see a great Fleming performance. So frustrating.

Because if he did he wouldn't be in League 2.
