Amazing. Taking over 50% of your home support to an away game.

Great effort and despite a poor performance on the pitch we managed to make noise throughout. Biggest away crowd I have seen us have since we last played at Bloomfield Road ;)

Brilliant turnout. Just a pity that the performance was a bit jaded BUT after a nightmare of a journey home after Portsmouth it's no wonder that we looked a bit off the pace. The lads probably didn't,t get home till well after. 8am I would imagine.

Fantastic vocal support as well as the numbers, I was sat at the halfway line and the volume put their fans to shame, excellent.

Arrived back in Lancaster at around 9.00pm after an incredibly tedious journey on the No. 42 bus back from Blackpool. The family day rider is cheap at £15 but it's cheap for a reason.

Have to say that I am incredibly proud to be a Morecambe fan. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing today and the response from the players, management and staff after the final whistle shows just what our support means to them all.

Thanks for putting me right and shows that despite our current financial problems the club still look after the interests of he team which is very encouraging.

Proud to support Morecambe.
Although such a large away support deserved a better performance and result yesterday, it was still well worth it. Great to see Jim and the players once again showing their appreciation to the fans at the end of the match.
We may be "Little Morecambe" but we are "Massive Morecambe" in heart and spirit.

Strange not feeling downbeat after a result and performance like that. But atmosphere was excellent, real togetherness and positivty with fans and players makes me so proud after everything we've been through. Morecambe of old.

And, c.70% of our home crowd is an excellent following. #UTS

First half was a great atmosphere. Everyone was getting behind the team with the songs/chanting.

2nd half was far more negative, was all just hostile because someone got chucked out. Was more about having a pop at the opposition rather than getting behind the team. The Oystons In chant was embarrassing.

Not counted in the 786 but it was good to see that Nigel Adams and Peter McGuigan were both at the match yesterday. Not sure if any other directors/ex-directors were there , there may well have been.

What I observed among the 786 were a good number that I know used to attend home matches regularly but had fallen away. They now seem to be returning to the club which is encouraging.

That's really good news, hope they get the bug again!
