The MBW stand is apalling. All the money was spent on the boxes etc. and the hardcore fans who are really passionate about this club have been sold up the river. Where's the heart and soul of Morecambe FC? Ceratinly not up there in prawn sandwich brigade H.Q.
No atmosphere at The Globe? It's fairly obvious why. Yes we need to generate other income. But without the will of the fans it will all be pointless. Are you really going to fill those boxes if this manager takes us down to the Conference? And no don't think it can't happen. There's too much complacency from those upon high at this club this season. Too much back slapping and not enough 'doing'! Great. We've got a new stadium. But how about we actually get on and bloody well start this season in the first place. Oh, and concentrate on what's actually going on on the pitch for a change.

Firstly, I don't know of anyone who prefers the MBW to the North Stand. Secondly, the amount of money it would cost to make the MBW a little larger and a bit more like the North Stand would be a very small percentage compared to the cost of the PMG stand. If the new ground cost £12m to build (buy land for etc. etc.) and the old, bigger and better North Stand cost £500k, you can see how little investment the MBW has received.

I wasn't aware that a survey of EVERYBODY who regularly watches games from the MBW had been carried out.....
