Season Review

Thanks for reading - and I will immediately start the 2016-17 season!

Most goals scored: Shaun Palmer: 10 goals scored for Morcambe
Best Player of the Season: Ellis Read - 7.22 Average Rating throughout 2015/16 season

In the summer of 2015, I signed three youth players from the Southampton academy. Their names were Shaun Palmer, Cole Long and Ellis Read. In the next month, they were joined by George Beale and Tommy Wells. George Beale and Tommy Wells turned out to play the highest quality of football in the five graduates, and Tommy Wells - notably played in a European competition.
