There was always the high possibility of an "After the Lord mayor's show" but that really was excrement and all caused by Hurst's urine poor set up and tactics. Do you think Hurst will ever ever learn that a team needs width and more importantly balance?
I flipping hope so. If not its going to be a long hard season in division 2.

Quoted from TAGG
Know I will get intercourse on here but it was a dog excrement game deserving of a dog excrement trophy.
Should have gone out 1st round and saved a lot of people a lot of money.

A game too far for Town, a game too far for Monkhouse in a competition most didn't want us to compete in. Fair play to Halifax, they lifted themselves from the disappointment of relegation and deserved the win. I hate to see us lose, especially to a side who let in so many goals last season but for me, the Town players just couldn't reproduce that intensity that they did last week. I thought we would be flat and we were. We have league football to look forward to, so..................................

Halifax snuffed us out - and we had no response. (particularly given the 2 divisions between the teams)

Poor effort really.

Having said that - Halifax's manager Jim Harvey was brilliant at Morecambe and was largely responsible for building the team, which took them in to the football league. Jim had to retire through ill health but Sammy McIlroy finished it off. Today, Halifax were the hungrier and better organised side in my view and deserved to win - well done.

No idea how much money we could have won for winning - but it is unfortunate that all of our wingers appear to have been unavailable today.

FFS folks, some of you need to get a grip. If anyone ahd asked at the start of the season that we would lose in the FA Trophy Final but win promotion we'd all have snapped their hands off. Well done Halifax, I hope it gives you a springboard to get back into the Conference and eventually the Football League......like us.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

I think if you ever ask me about Andy Monkhouse, he'll always be fondly remembered by myself as the guy who won us promotion by being injured for the play offs.

Quite how he got on and stayed on for so long after the past 2 games of superb football from us is beyond me. Arnold & Marshall must be absolutely perplexed.


Goodbye Non League, hello football league.

Well if we are charitable perhaps the manager was giving a swan song to one or two or three players or maybe he just wanted to see who really should be released.

One thing is for sure, if Hurst wanted to win this game he would never have chosen this team for starters ..... would he?

Well done Halifax. Best team today by a mile, and perhaps their supporters deserve to enjoy their day in the sun given their recent history. Today wasn't fun to watch but try not to get too down fellow Mariners, enjoy the summer, we're in League 2
