    Warm and sunny. 18 degrees - which is 20 degrees warmer than it usually is in Morcambe. Just having a beer watching England struggling to avoid the follow on.

    So here I am back at the ground and the first shock is i’m In a queue to get in about 50 metres long. Must be a crowd of around 50.000.

    I’m in!
    Sat in a huge stand that wouldn’t look out of place in the Championship. The rest of the Stadium....would. The opposite terrace is made up of a huge wall that looks like it’s been sourced in Berlin and then 5 terrace steps. Think Layer Rd in the 80s when Beefburger Ben (u tube it) led a pitch invasion.
    Sat with the Morcambe fans where a guy has a white rose ‘Yorkshire Tykes’ flag.
    Salford fans noisy. About 700.
    Ex Reds today:
    John O Sullivan?
    Rhys Oates?
    Scott Wiseman!!!

    Must mention the turnstiles here. New fangled nonsense. You get a ticket, put it into a reader ....and the turnstile opens!!
    Get this. THERE IS NO TURNSTILE OPERATOR TO GIVE YOUR TICKET TO.
    Can’t see it catching on myself.

    1-1. In spite of the huge gulf in class.
    Salford should have had six, but have some pretty obnoxious fans and the Morcambe fans have just come out with a COYR that went right round the ground. Reminded me of home.
    Update 2-1. Morcambe!! Bizarre.

    2-2. Yr back on. Shocking error by the Keeper. 78 year old Barry Roche.

    Another Salford penalty.

    Missed again!!! Great save from Roche.
    What I learned today.

    - John O Sullivan is a shadow of the player who briefly lit up Oakwell.
    - this is Scott Wiseman ‘s level.
    - these two teams try to play football.
    - the Referees are better at this level.
    - the Midland Hotel is a superb example of a Art Deco building.
    - Kevin Ellison is still alive
    - fans at this level deserve huge respect and they illustrate why the English football authorities (including the Premiership) should hang their heads in shame.

    If he ever did light it up it was with a candle.
