- McIlroy slams Bantams bid
Morecambe boss Sammy McIlroy has dismissed a £10,000 bid from Bradford City for winger Garry Thompson as a joke.
The 27-year-old has been a key figure for the Shrimps in their recent success and McIlroy is in no mood to part with one of his key players.
He told The Visitor: "Bradford have come in with a derisory offer for one of our key players and we've rejected it.
"To be perfectly honest it is a ludicrous offer and a joke bid for a player of Garry's experience and potential. £10,000 is totally ridiculous.
"I'm trying to build a side at Morecambe, not dismantle it. Garry Thompson is not for sale."
