According to Radio Lancashire Sport this evening they have spoken to Rod today who has confirmed that Diego has been in touch and that a further update of the current situation will be made public in the near future.

Let's hope that we the fans get some answers to the current situation so that we can all put our efforts into supporting the team on match days.

Rumour is Diego has done a deal with a wealthy Russian Diplomat! What could go wrong with that?

Apparently Diego is after the gunman because it's the first shot he's seen on target since he's been in charge.

Thing is Neil, what can you actually do about it? Nothing unless you're a closet multi-millionaire devoted Morecambe fan. It's frustrating that we hear nothing but the club is a Ltd company and they'll just be trying to get on with keeping the company afloat. That rarely involves telling the world how bad, or good, the situation is.

It's catch-22 for them. Say nothing and rumours spread like wildfire. Telling people the truth could be even worse, if the facts are as bad as the rumours.

Whatever, the club can't do right for doing wrong.

Brian you are right of course but surely the fans would prefer to hear any news about this saga be it good, bad or totally indifferent from the club rather than on the radio..,. :?: :?: :?:

What better way to let fans know what's going on than the radio which has been posted here near instantly? They're running a business, it's a surprise they've made that statement.

I'd disagree. If it's bad news with no real hope, then the sooner it's out in the open, the better. It's been a feature of the club for a few years now. The directors/owners have known how bad things were, in terms of losses, lower attendances, no money for development of the grounds, no sponsor, etc. but have chosen not only to keep quiet about it, but have actually used a loophole to delay the publication of accounts to keep the situation hidden for longer than is healthy. If they'd been honest a few years ago that losses were out of control and PMG was going to stop bankrolling it, then either other potential buyers may have come forward or there may have been some kind of consortium or even the fans themselves raising money to buy shares etc. Now it's "end game" and there's no time for the fans' trust I wouldn't have thought. It's as if the Board/owners have just carried on with nothing but blind hope that something good would happen. Business isn't like that - you have to manage your business properly. Over three years ago the Board said they had a 3 year plan to make the club break even - this is after they said it would be self-sufficient after the move and Sainsbury money. Anyone know what their "plan" was - nothing actually happened, no changes - so was their plan merely "hope for the best!"
