Bit early I know for this one, but it seems quite a few might be making a weekend of it, both in Morecambe and Lancaster. Booked it a while ago now, got a bargain £26 return on the train from Milton Keynes, £20 for a stay in the Travel Lodge. 10 going in our group.

Yeah, a load going up by train...leaving Lancaster at around 8pm. Another load of us staying in Lancaster...I've booked hotel opposite Lancaster station...would be great if we could even get close to replicating the weekend up there a few seasons back, when we took just shy of a 1000!

I've managed to blag two £5 train vouchers this week so am definitely debating this from Leicester

Two good reasons to go, uni drinking haunts and hot food.

Interesting the contrast that given the such close proximity to each other (2 miles?) Morecambe is a complete dump, whilst Lancaster is a top place, historically, architecturally...and a brilliant night out!

Indeed. We only ventured to Morecambe for The Carleton. A cheap and cheesy night out

Ever frequented the Tivoli Bar in Morecambe? There's some characters in there.

Don't think so...forgot what the pub was in Morecambe now, pool table and a ten minute walk to the Globe Arena down a dirt track!

If the sun comes out (unlikely), one of the better pubs in Lancaster is the Water Witch which is on the Canal.

Never been there, though read about the place. Will certainly try and start off and after the game at the Three Mariners.

Hurly Flyer is the name of the pub outside the ground, what is the name of the pub just up the road ?

After two excellent away results Morecambe is now the only away game out of the next five. Day out by the seaside for some, weekend away in Morecambe or Lancaster for others, either way looking like being a good away day.

Collected Morecambe ticket yesterday (along with Pompey) and find it pretty embarrassing that NTFC can't (along with so many others!) simply spell MorecOmbe correctly!
