Morecambe directors return to their roles


The returns of Graham Howse, Rod Taylor, Mick Horton, Charlie Appleyard and James Wakefield were confirmed on Friday afternoon after they had stood down from their roles on Wednesday.
That was amid a row with the Shrimps’ owner, Bond Group Investments, over the prolonged sale of the club to Panjab Warriors in addition to delayed wages for June.

As part of that announcement, Bond Group added that the previous board had been invited back to support the final stages of the sale process.
Having made their return, a board statement said: “The Board of Directors have unanimously agreed to rejoin Morecambe FC and facilitate the sale of Bond Group’s shares to Panjab Warriors, which is intended to complete on Monday.
“All we can promise is that we will do everything in our powers to make it happen, get wages paid and begin at last to look forwards.”
