Posted: Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:49 pmSammy McIlroy is tearing his hair out at the recent cold snap as his Morecambe side have been unable to play since January 2.
The Shrimps boss has been thwarted in his attempts to arrange a friendly against a Manchester United side as they had a Middle East training trip and he admits it is the worst situation he has known in over 20 years of management.
He told the Morecambe Visitor: "I've never known anything like it in all my time in management and it's all getting a bit of a nuisance now.
"The snow looked nice for a couple of days but since than it's been nothing but a pain for everyone involved in football.
"Finding a decent venue for training is a constant pain and we are all just desperate to get a game of football in at some stage.
"We have been training indoors at the Soccerdome in Manchester but we don't want to do that on a regular basis because it isn't ideal for some of the lads as it is harder on the joints than a natural surface.
"The one good thing though is that everyone is in the same boat and a lot of other clubs in our league are using the same venue."
he hasnt got any hair
