Match Preview
No Moss on Morecambe Morecambe defender Darren Moss has left the club by mutual consent ahead of the home clash with Stevenage. The 29-year-old joined the Shrimps on a free transfer last summer and has made seven appearances for them this season. However, he has not featured for Sammy McIlroy's men since a 1-0 defeat at Macclesfield on August 31. McIlroy could make changes to his side following last weekend's disappointing 2-1 defeat at Aldershot and is demanding a vast improvement defensively against Stevenage. He said: "We had too many people off the pace, too many players didn't turn up, and you can't do that at a place like Aldershot. "I'm sick of talking about set-pieces. It's so basic and we have to do better." Stevenage manager Graham Westley will be without Luke Foster. Foster was given his marching orders 19 minutes after coming on as a substitute in last week's 2-1 win over Burton and will serve the first game of his three-match ban. New signing Ben May will not be available after the striker had a back operation and is four to six weeks away from full fitness so on-loan striker Chris Holroyd will continue to lead the front-line after his recent goal-scoring form. Westley is also without Joel Byrom, who has a fractured eye socket, and Lee Boylan also remains sidelined, while long-term absentees Chris Beardsley and Darren Murphy are still unavailable as Stevenage look to continue their push up the League Two table.

Match Report
Bore draw at Morecambe Morecambe and Stevenage shared the spoils in this lacklustre stalemate at the Globe Arena. In a game of few chances it was Stevenage who had the best opportunity to take the points when they missed a 48th-minute penalty. Morecambe defender Garry Hunter was harshly adjudged to have handled Michael Bridges' header but Scott Laird's spot-kick was superbly saved by Barry Roche. A minute later Morecambe had a great chance of their own when Scott Brown shot straight at Chris Day and Brown also went close with a left-wing cross that beat everyone but came back off the left-hand post. Both teams traded chances at the end with Day saving from Rundle and Michael Bostwick heading a Lawrie Wilson cross into the side netting. The first half was a sterile affair with neither goalkeeper forced into a save. Morecambe left back Laurence Wilson provided the best moment of the half after 27 minutes when he set off on a run down the left and beat three players before curling an effort wide of the left-hand post.
