Morecambe boss Sammy McIlroy has warned his strikers to start hitting the net, despite the Shrimps making a solid start to life in the Football League.

Michael Twiss has scored just once this term, while Matt Blinkhorn has yet to break his duck, with McIlroy prepared to make changes if necessary.

He told The Visitor: "We have moved up a level now and, though it sounds simple to say, you have to take your chances.

"We've played teams that everyone expects to be at the top of the league come the end of the season and we haven't been worse than them.

"I can't fault the attitude, commitment or performance of my players, but we do need to start putting the chances away."
