Morecambe to face Blackpool behind closed doors
Morecambe will now play Blackpool on Tuesday but the game will be staged behind closed doors.
The friendly between the two sides was scrapped over fears of a pitch invasion like the one that saw the Seasiders’ friendly at Lancaster City abandoned earlier in the month.
Escalating police costs saw the match shelved but the teams have now however agreed to play the game in the afternoon as the build-up to the new season continues.
