If you listen to what Jim has to say (and I agree with most of it), then massive amounts of money are not necessarily the answer. The passion and feelings for OUR club can take us forward.

If anyone can post a link to what (I think) was Jim's only post on here (after the Daggers hammering in the first leg of the League 2 playoffs), and also the superb posting by Mark S featuring M People and the last match at CP (the second leg of the same match), then just read and watch those two posts and BE PROUD THAT YOU ARE A SHRIMPS SUPPORTER - and don't worry if you shed a tear or two.

MFC - we love you.

Re: Morecambe v Exeter City Matchday Thread
Jim Bentley travelled 580 miles to watch us against Yeovil in mid-week.....

Every mile worthwhile tonight he will feel.

Taken from the ECFC forum. Now that's dedication to the cause!

And some people want Jim out ?

Only a few of them, they should hang their heads in shame.

But we need massive amounts of money just to stand still. We're making losses of £600-£700k per season and that's how things stand. To improve the stadium or Jim's budget, someone would have to pay in that ON TOP of the £600/£700k, so realistically you're looking at a buyer committing to £1m per year for a few years to turn the club around until the attendances rise and other income streams start to come on. That's on top of what they'd have to pay the outgoing directors/Abdul to clear some or all of their loans. So, unfortunately, yes, massive amounts of money are needed to progress.
