Overview

• Morecambe will officially shut on Monday, August 4 unless owner Jason Whittingham signs the Panjab Warriors takeover deal.
• All first-team and youth operations have halted after the club’s insurance lapsed, prompting staff to cease working and players to seek releases.
• The National League suspended Morecambe’s membership until August 20 and expelled the club from the 2025/26 National League Cup over unmet financial obligations.
• Panjab Warriors, whose takeover bid was approved by the EFL in June, say they have reached out daily to complete the acquisition and inject funds.
• Jason Whittingham says he is working towards a successful sale but has yet to finalize the Panjab Warriors agreement.
