    Adams' team showing energy and resilience, but sadly showing little in the way of quality. Should he come to us will our budget make the difference?

    Taken over the season they have with the lowest budget very narrowly missing out on automatic promotion and one of the highest goal scoring team

    Newport have carried slightly more attacking threat but overall a poor game to watch. If it is to be Adams , i hope he is not planning on bringing many or any of the players with him . Very uninspiring on this showing.

    I realise that Park but we should be aiming to finish in the auto spots not in the play offs. So, from where we are now is it likely with his style of play?

    If it is Adams, I hope he can replicate whatever’s happened at Blackpool. No so long since, they had fans boycotts, poor results etc, etc. and now they’re back in the championship, whilst we’ve had the accelerator stuck in reverse...

    I just said with the lowest budget he narrowly missed out on automatic to moneybags Bolton. He seems to have got the best out of players like NKP Mellor and Hendrie and they scored plenty of goals so he looks ideal to me and his record elsewhere is good as well

    Let's hope so. I think the 'style of play' criticism is a little harsh tbh. He has the lowest budget in the league and he's making it work. They're 8 mins away from promotion to a level they've never been to. Amd according to the commentator earlier, only 3 sides in the league scored more goals than Morecambe. Hes achieved success with more than 1 club at this level. Its league 2 football at the end of the day, so getting the basics right can take you far. We've failed to get the basics right for years.

    I'd have been seriously narked if that had been awarded against us.

    Hope Stuart’s number hasn’t been taken out of the Rolodex.

    So Adams leads his team up, then immediately hands his notice in? Can't see it myself.

    It will be hard for Morecambe next season to stay up, I think he will still join us for next season.
