Morecambe FC – another case of an EFL sinking ship
League Two has once again produced an incredible season full of twists and turns.
Whether it was Crawley Town’s rise under Scott Lindsey or Doncaster Rovers’ incredible run that saw them go from relegation contenders to play-off chasers.
After three seasons in the English Football League’s fourth division, Colchester United narrowly avoided relegation against Sutton United, creating a thrilling spectacle.
The splendor of Stockport County under Dave Challinor, who led them with a ruthlessness that allowed them to win the league and return to League One for the first time since 2009.
But despite all the magnificent and spectacular moments, one team more than any other has to be in the spotlight.
That is the Morecambe Football Club, who finished the season in fifteenth place.
Why is that? On the face of it, there isn’t much to talk about.
16 points above the relegation zone and 12 points off the play-off places, they appear to be the archetypal midtable team.
Well, their need to be discussed has nothing to do with the football.
