    69 goals this season is the 3rd highest in the division. Only Cambridge and Exeter have scored more. Defensively not so great. 58 conceded - one of the worst!!!!

    Stats suggest he isn't in the 'negative crowd'. But more the 'you scored 2, we will score 3'.

    I think it would be a major own goal if we’re waiting on adams and he took morecambe up and then knocked us back . Carnt see sparks risking it after his interview on bbc leeds last night

    He is out of contract next month so I'm guessing he is in the negotiation stages and can talk to other clubs. He may well have already signed. And it won't be announced for obvious reasons.

    My thoughts exactly, I got the impression it’s all done and dusted. I’m still going to go with my first hunch that it’s Wellens.

    His contract is up next month. Im pretty sure there is a negotiation period where he can pretty much do as he pleases if he has no intention of staying with Morecombe.

    Adams or whoever it is, they have to have the remit that’s it’s promotion and promotion only. We have to get out of this league.

    If he has told them he is leaving when his contract expires what is the issue? They were willing to let him leave in December.

    You think Morecombe havent offered him a new deal yet or those conversations havent taken place?

    Nicko is a “keep guessing” pundit. Sometimes right, mostly wrong!

    Why would they still be in negotiations if Sparks publicly states we are NOT looking for applications ?

    Apologies, he did and I can't count. You're right! :confused:


    Oops! @Rogered Tart@Rogered Tart It looks like we would have to buy out his contract if Adams were to join us.

    He is in the negotiation stages of a contract ABOUT TO LAPSE. So he can negotiate, sign, do what he wants.
