Loud & clear on a lightly drizzling Isle of Man. Home-made chicken, leek & ham pie in the oven, smelling lovely.

I think we'll struggle to score, so 2-0 to Shrews. Hopefully wrong.

MarkS' entirely evidence based, and not in any way hokum-pokem, dry arm & foot in the shower, good day theory, resulting in a one-two win, sounds preferable to my pessimistic prediction.

If we win 2-1, I will be convinced that Mark is a witch doctor (instead of simply a witch).

A long game unless we step up a gear or two.

It is a tall order against a high flying 1st division club , main thing is not to get any injuries or susspensions which will hamper us in the league .

To borrow Billy Connolly's joke perhaps we should change our name to Morecambe Nil!!!

Just listening to our managers post match interview.

Same old...same old.

Radio Shropshire got it right...no cutting edge despite playing it OK in midfield.

Well done to the 300+ who went to support the lads.

The lack of a cutting edge is a huge worry. Of the 9 second round games today involving 18 teams we were the only team failing to score a goal. We desperately need a new striker- that is a cheaper option for the owners than relegation!!

Is it? I thought the club would get a hefty payout from the league if they get relegated. If the "owners", whoever they are, are more interested in money than the football, relegation may give them a better return. (I hope that's not the case, but it makes you wonder)

The club will be worth millions less if we get relegated. The £4m rumoured to be the selling price would be reduced to £400,000-£500,000. I suspect any prospective buyer will wait and see what happens!

It's not worth millions now, so it can't be worth millions less. The only offers we're getting is one pound on condition debts are written off. The £4m being asked is pie in the sky. It's not even "worth" £400-£500k now. "Worth" is only what someone will pay for it.

Someone says this every year and it's still not true. Had we qualified it would have been a different draw and we'd have as much chance of getting Luton away as we would West Ham at home.

We would have been the same ball number so would still have drawn West Ham at home.
