Preparations for our second successive Sky Bet League One campaign are underway, so we’ve taken a detailed look into our away days for the upcoming season.
The numbers are in, Morecambe will travel 4,101.8 miles (one way) to away games in the 2022/23 campaign.
Out of all 24 teams in the division, Morecambe will be the most northern team following Sunderland AFC’s promotion to the Sky Bet Championship, meaning all 23 away days will be southbound.
Of those teams relegated from the Championship, Derek Adams’ men will be facing Derby County and Barnsley for the first time in the football league, and have already played Peterborough United twice before in League Two.
The teams promoted from League Two are Forest Green, Exeter City, Bristol Rovers and Port Vale, all whom the Shrimps have met various times competitively in recent years.
