That was in July 2022 – and I’m still awaiting a response. So I emailed him again asking for specific guarantees. So I contacted the Chief Executive of the club requesting exactly such an assurance. But I wanted assurances that whatever I came up with would be not only be approved by but actually published by the club – I learnt a long time ago that endlessly slaving away at projects that never see the light of day is the sort of mug’s game even I won’t indulge in. So was Charlie Appleyard, one of the more progressive Directors of the club. Last season, one of our number suggested that I and Derek Quinn co-write an account of Morecambe’s Adventures in the Wonderland of the EFL so far. After the exchange of several emails, I’m still waiting for them – is it three or even four – years later? I’ve been told – told – by one of the co-Chairmen in the past to use only officially sanctioned photos of the stadium our team plays at. (I look in the mirror and a huge beaker with a handle attached stares back at me. Surely anybody in his lofty position should be able to produce a better-informed and better illustrated effort of the sort of thing you are reading now than an outsider like me ever could. The HM&C is an insider – he had access to information, press conferences, Official Photographs plus the playing staff and the Manager which I personally can only dream about. This gentleman arrived – to a considerable fanfare and undoubtedly a very generous salary – from North of the Border earlier this year.
However – to state for the first time something we will return to in due course, the club now has in post someone they like to call their `Head of Media & Communications’.
