There are now 18 clubs playing non league football who Morecambe have played against, in the league, since we became a football league club. I think some supporters need to reign in their expectations about playing in league one. We have a small fan base, no money, do not own a training facility and our ground is certainly not league one standard. Added to that, the majority of the squad is made up of loan players, players on short term contracts until the end of the season and players left over from Robinson's very expensive six months in charge (Robinson, the manager who came in on a 3 year deal, promised the earth, brought loads of players in on two year contracts and then headed north) Now some, but not all, are calling for Adams to go, but we need to get realistic, we could get a premier league manager in but with a tiny budget, or no budget at all, would they do any better (Gomez wanted to come back to the club on loan this season but we could not afford his wages so he went to Fleetwood and we know what happened next) It's not just about the manager, you have to look at the bigger picture and the point I'm making about the 18 ex league clubs is that they made managerial changes, some made several managerial changes and now look where they are playing ?
