What a man! I'd happily donate a little something to a local cause if the trust can give us more details.

Great suggestion MPH- St John's Hospice is a great local charity. I will follow suit.

A very good afternoon to you all.

The Trust has been in contact with Morecambe Football Club and Derek Adams and, while both are hugely appreciative of the generous gesture from a number of members and supporters, Derek would prefer that any fundraising efforts are directed towards other worthy causes close to the hearts of Shrimps supporters.

The Trust will be considering other ways in which fans can show their appreciation for Derek and the team over the coming weeks, as well as looking into how we can support others during these times of great difficulty.

Derek has done a remarkable job for our amazing Club since his arrival in Morecambe, and we look forward to celebrating further successes still to come.

Thank you all for your ongoing and greatly appreciated support - Up the Shrimps!

Fair play Derek. Happy to donate to a local charity in his name.
