A huge update regarding Morecambe FC emerges as Panjab Warriors break their silence with fresh hope of saving the club from the brink.
Panjab Warriors are now ready, willing and able to proceed with the purchase immediately, according to statement released on Tuesday (29th July).
That’s right, after Panjab Warriors had gone quiet, they are now back in the picture and prepared to take over Morecambe immediately. The National League on board too. Now over to Jason Whittingham.

JOINT STATEMENT:
“This is a joint statement from Panjab Warriors Sports Limited, the minority shareholders represented by Wright & Lord Solicitors, The Shrimps Trust and Lizzi Collinge MP.
“Following detailed discussions yesterday and today, Panjab Warriors are now ready, willing and able to proceed with the purchase immediately.
“The funds required to clear the necessary liabilities would be met forthwith. This would see the payment of all outstanding wages and other immediate liabilities to allow the Club to prepare for the season and lift the Club’s suspension and embargo from the National League.
“The National League are aware and ready to sanction the deal and immediately lift the suspension and embargo should the sale proceed.”
The last time we heard from Jason Whittingham, a statement read: “Bond Group Investments has continued to work with the Consortium led by Jonny Cato in their efforts to acquire the majority shareholding in Morecambe Football Club.
“Whilst talks are ongoing, it is clear that continual negative press statements impacting on the club, have given them cause for concern and pause.
“Alongside this, Bond Group had agreed to an offer, made by a Sikh representative of, and on behalf of, the Panjab Warriors, and are ready to sell on that basis.
“Despite numerous attempts over the past week to contact Panjab Warriors regarding their offer, and our willingness to complete, we have not heard from them.
“We now urge the Panjab Warriors to make contact in an effort to complete on the sale.
“Jason Whittingham, Bond Group Investments LTD”

@KjaerTravel: So sad with Morecambe FC. Whittingham is an utter disgrace. I feel for the fans and community. Bad owners are a big poison in football. Suspended from the NL and will most likely have to start over in the very bottom of the pyramid. I wish them well. #MorecambeFC #shrimpers
@Johnnyproudlove: Jason Whittingham is an awful man…willing buyers and he’s pissing around to kill Morecambe. He should not be able or allowed to wipe out a football club because he is an idiot. The football authorities should be able to step in and protect the club from extinction! @MorecambeFC
@GiallorossiBlue: Man, I really up Whittingam stops being a scum bag for 5 minutes and allows Panjab Warriors to save Morecambe!
@2006kean: Hope this now goes through
@tracytrumpet: Does this mean there is a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel or is #JasonWhittigham going to just ignore this too!! #saveourshrimps
@foreverayellow: lost count of how many twists and turns we’ve had over the summer, please, let’s finally get this takeover done so morecambe survive
