MFC now appear to have sold all standing tickets for Saturday's game plus 185 in the East Stand. Not sure of that stand's capacity, is it around 600? If so, they've a way to go yet.
Yer basically as said earlier theyβve done what usually the club doesnβt do and sold the terracing first

Hopefully get somewhere near selling out but they are in a crap position and probably down to injuries. Watched a game of theirs and they don't play like the position in league shows. Won't be an easy ride but looking forward to this one and hope we can generate the noise to push the boys over the line!

Yes, what could?

'Local' derbies often throw up shocks....us scoring five would be a shock, for sure. Hopefully, a decent crowd in and a good performance and positive result to send us all home happy.

They certainly know where the net is, and have very decent strikers. Wonder if we could maybe swap a couple, say Tollit and Hope.

Great idea that. Letβs go sign hope whoβs scored 24 times in the past 7 years, 2 seasons of which spent in non league and tollit whoβs spent the past 6 seasons milling between the conference north and conference

?????????
Morecambe failed to score in any of their first 6 league games.
They have only scored 8 league goals (2 of them being own goals).
Barrow have scored 13.
Tollit has scored 2 goafrom 10 appearances, Hope 1 goal from 7 appearances.
So much for their decent strikers.
