Morecambe cease all football operations as owner urged to complete sale

Morecambe, a football club, has ceased all first-team football operations as the owner, Jason Whittingham, is urged to complete the sale of the club. Whittingham had previously claimed to be in talks with a consortium led by Jonny Cato regarding the acquisition of the majority shareholding in Morecambe. However, Whittingham also stated that Bond Group, the company he represents, had been unable to contact Panjab Warriors, the London-based investment company that received clearance from the EFL to purchase Morecambe in June. The club was suspended from the National League on Monday after a deadline passed for Whittingham to outline how the club would meet its financial obligations for the 2025-26 season. The prospective buyers have now implored Whittingham to sell the club, as the situation remains in flux.
