    Tonight's the night for the cockle pickers against the pocket pickers, what do we want ? A four nowt drubbing for Morecambe and no chance in the second leg or advantage Morecambe on the basis that Adams doesn't fancy trying to keep them up ?

    Having seen Tranmere's approach in the match v us recently, I think they will find it hard to get an advantage out of this and we are going to have to wait another week before we can (hopefully) unveil Adams.

    I bet Sparks is sweating a bit on this one.

    vaughan will be a problem for morecambe if he plays, I assume we'll have adams either way maybe compo is higher if they get promoted.

    Will be interesting to see if the style of play is as bad as I think it is. Can't say I was paying too much attention in our game the other week.

    Hope Morecambe win the play offs. Done superbly this season with plenty of goals to boot.

    Whilst it dose not count for much, 4th best team in this division by a reasonable amount

    To be fair, you aren't wrong. Most teams that win 50% of their matches will go up.

    If indeed Adams is the one, and all is agreed, why would Sparks be sweating on the outcome?. If Adams isn't the one, again, why would he be sweating.

    Sparks seems content that he has his man.

    From a selfish City perspective the preference would have to be for Tranmere to get promoted because they're the biggest team in the play offs and hence the most likely to be strong in the division next season. However, any football fan who doesn't want Morecambe to get promoted mustn't have a soul so I've got to root for Bradford on Sea.

    Frankly they were both utterly crap, just better utterly crap than we were.

    That how low we sunk under our ex dynamic duo.

    Sorry, just had to get that off my chest

    Remember, you're talking about the man who was content to give McCall a one year extension, days before sacking him.

    The Hindenburg "rose" but soon fell when the helium combusted.

    Sometimes hard to see a sides true style in these one off play off games. I find after all the hype the play offs are usually now dull affairs with neither team wanting to risk losing it and therefore they become stalemates.
    It seems gone are the days where they are thrillers

    The only thing that bugs me is that clubs are already signing players, surely the longer Morecambe are in contention play off wise the more chance we have on missing out ? Don’t forget we are a manager-less club and players will be put off by it! So from a completely selfish perspective I’d like Tranmere to dust the shrimps off quickly.
