Yes. We're really pleased to be working on the designs for MBW who are sponsoring the Home Terrace. Peter and Loic have been backing the club for a long time and this is a big investment on their part. I'm sure a more formal announcement will be made soon.
The other sponsor I know of is the Wright & Lord suite. Again they've been huge backers of the club and this is another example of backing the club and backing the town, as Morecambe's law firm.

The Main Stand is the Peter McGuigan Stand. He's not sponsoring it but I would like to see anyone ask him for the money!

That's not a bad idea someone could have their name painted all the way down that side would be good coverage for them.

If you pop down to the club shop on Victoria street and buy one of the brilliant new shirts, you can see some mock up's/pictures of the stands with sponsors names on. many thanks to Bay Radio for their continued support and to Morecambe Bay Wines too. Nice to hear Wright & Lord are also in there sponsoring a suite, simon and stephen are great supporters of the club and were doing it when we were less fashionable, as were many other sponsors like carlton caterers and ambulink ( we should never forget the contribution that the business community has made over the years as well as the supporters). I just can't wait to get to the Globe and see our local team play in our brand new stadium.
I heard that one of the doomsayers was going on about the bars not being ready, but spoke to a friend earlier who is delivering the beer to the ground in the next few days.
we're going to be ready on and off the pitch. it will be a massive moment for the morecambe family, for the club and the community and I for one am proud as anything to be a shrimps supporter.

Indeed, the away end is 'The Bay Radio Stand', I believe we have done a five year deal. Our boards go up today too, exciting!

A push?
I'd heard it was more of a lean followed by a topple over

I believe the capacity for the Berlin Wall is 606. What about an approach to Radio Five Live to sponsor the terrace? I'll get me anorak.

Nah! It's the main stand for me. Since 1966 I've always been a behind the goal man. With the western stand being that bit smaller than the old North Stand and a preference for viewing from higher up I've gone for Block D. It's a rite of passage. I have now become a boring old fart. Official! I might have to sneak in a vuvuzela to test C.C's apparent love for them. Besides I dont want to mix with the proles. It's the hoi-polloi pour moi. Another glass of chianti Rupert?
