They are actually playing each other in a "friendly"
tomorrow! At the County game last season, as you say the 2 grounds are as close as Christie Park and the Shrimp roundabout, we went to the Globe across the bridge from the ground as the pub next door was "trashed"
. The County fans in there were quite stunned to see a red shirt but once they realised we were Morecambe and not those £**!!!!!***$$$$ from over the river we were ok. They said that in the old days there would be some real fighting but now whichever team were playing at home used the pub. We were made very welcome when we visited the clubs own bar whilst watching the Sky game
The County fans are quite worried about their Kop being taken over
