If anyone has the visitor check, the "20 years ago" section, makes interesting reading.

Did anyone notice the quality headline on page 2 last week?

"He puts on women's clothing and hangs around in Spar"

Well it made me - a Monty Python fan - chuckle at least.

Eric Fisher was a former Director of Workington who retired to Morecambe and got involved with the club at a time when we were suffering from lack of funds etc. I seem to recall it being at the time that a couple of long terms fans got onto the Board to aid the clubs plight. One was and still is a very avid Burnley supporter.

He puts on women's clothing and hangs around in Spar

A man from Lancaster who broke into a Spar shop in Scale Hall Lane, dressed as a woman, has been given a 12-month supervision order.
Reuben Rhodes, 23, currently residing in Ryelands Road, stole a washing pole from the back garden of a property across the road from the Spar shop, then used it to break in and attempted to steal cigarettes and alcohol to the value of £308.

He caused £2,000 worth of damage in the incident in the early hours of March 16.

Lancaster Magistrates Court heard Rhodes had a drug problem, for which he was receiving treatment, and that on the night in question, he had taken amphetamine and alcohol, before going out unclear about what he was going to do.

He also cut eye-holes in a white T-shirt and wrapped it around his head to add to his disguise. He told police in interview that he "felt like Superman."

Rhodes pleaded guilty to both the theft of the washing pole, and to the attempted burglary.

You've already got the tune in your head, so all together now...

He's a burglar from Rylands Road,
Stole fags and booze and a washing pole,
He puts on women's clothing and hangs around in Spar,
With his cut out t-shirt disguise, he felt like Super-ma!

oh he's a burglar from Rylands Road...

there has been some great articles and headlines over the years.

before the home-leg of the play offs there was a head line "Morecambe have a semi-on"

then the article about some stolen sheep that described the sheep as white and fluffy with littel black legs :lol:
