Today was supposed to be the day the sale of Morecambe FC was completed. But not as yet.
Instead Jason Whittingham released the following statement.
There has been a campaign of abuse on social media against my family members, including elderly and young - all vulnerable people, including women, who they are clearly attempting to intimidate and bully.
In addition to reporting this to the police, they will be investigated even after the club is sold, no matter how long it takes. As we acquire their details, we will contact their place of work, education or associations as well as pursuing criminal charges.
As social media and accompanying abuse against me and my family has been noticed, the individuals involved have already been responsible for putting off at least two potential buyers who do not want to be involved in a club with a section of such toxic individuals.
These individuals serve only themselves not the best interests of the club.
