Shrimps Address Fans’ Concerns in Open Letter to Owners

Morecambe FC, facing challenges on multiple fronts, has received an open letter from the Shrimps Trust. This correspondence targets the club’s owners, Panjab Warriors, and chairman Kuljit Singh Momi.

Shrimps Trust Raises Concerns

In their letter, the trust expresses worries regarding both on-pitch performance and off-pitch management. They emphasize that previous commitments made by ownership have yet to materialize.

Background of Ownership Changes

Panjab Warriors took over at the beginning of the current season. This management change followed a protracted effort by fans to oust former owner Jason Whittingham, linked to the club’s relegation from the English Football League (EFL).

  • Previous owner: Jason Whittingham
  • Current owners: Panjab Warriors
  • Chairman: Kuljit Singh Momi

Ongoing Challenges

Fans had hoped for stability after a turbulent period that included unpaid wages and reduced player rosters. Unfortunately, the team’s current position in the National League is precarious, landing them in relegation danger.

Calls for Communication

The Shrimps Trust highlights critical issues that remain unattended, including:

  • Promised player recruitment strategies
  • Strengthening of board governance
  • Filling key positions with qualified personnel

After a fans’ forum held in December, many questions linger about the club’s trajectory. The trust urges for direct communication from the ownership.

Conclusion

The trust states, “We hope these questions are answered as constructively as they are intended to be received. The broader fanbase needs direct updates from the club. Only then can reasonable concerns be laid to rest.”

As Morecambe FC navigates these challenges, fan engagement and transparency from ownership appear essential for future success.
