Derek Adams maintains points are the only thing missing from Morecambe’s start to the 2022/23 season.
“We’ve had a slow start from a points point of view,” Adams acknowledged.“It’s a tough division and we understand where we are as a team and as a club.Ash Hunter is one of Morecambe's longer-term injury absentees Picture: Lewis Storey/Getty ImagesIpswich inflicted Morecambe’s seventh defeat of the season last weekendThe last couple of League One seasons have been the most competitive in living memory with more than half the division seemingly capable of finishing in the top six.
Adams added: “People see it as an excuse but it’s the reality, there are many teams in this division who are better equipped on and off the pitch.“What we can do is punch above our weight and that’s what Morecambe have had to do over the years. That’s the challenge.“It’s always been the case at this football club, but, to be fair, that’s always been the challenge for me as a football manager.”
The opening two-and-a-half months have certainly been a challenge with injuries decimating the Mazuma Stadium squad. Courtney Duffus was already a season-long absentee before being joined on the sidelines by summer arrivals Ash Hunter and Max Melbourne.with Jensen Weir, Caleb Watts and Liam Shaw also having missed games.That’s before the Shrimps’ luck – or lack of it in recent weeks – comes under the microscope.
“Last weekend, Ipswich’s first penalty was a penalty but the second wasn’t; Jacob Bedeau plays the ball and nicks it away.“I don’t believe decisions even themselves out over a season; someone would have to explain how that happens.
