Just seen this on the Official site - how true this is!!

FA Cup sponsored by E.On Fourth Round.
Friday 22nd Jan 2010.

Fans can win it for us
Accrington Stanley are looking for the people of East Lancashire to get behind us as we look to progress to the fifth round of the FA Cup sponsored by E.On with a tie against Premiership side Fulham on Saturday afternoon, kick off 3.00pm.

Speaking after our third round victory over Gillingham Stanley chief executive Rob Heys said "Our fans were magnificent on Tuesday and played their part in our success, the stadium wasn't at its fullest but the noise that was generated and the atmosphere was as magnificent as always.

"Fulham will be a tough game for us, they will bring a few supporters up and so we need as many people as possible to come along and join us as we look to cause a cup upset and make it through to the next stage of the competition. If we get the win we are looking for it will be talked about for years to come.

"We would appeal for anyone who isn't doing anything on Saturday afternoon to get a ticket and come and support us, make some noise, get behind the team and hopefully be a part of our success!"

Tickets are priced at £20 for adults and £10 for concessions and will be on sale until 6pm this evening, and then in the morning from 9am up until kick off from the ticket office. Some areas of the ground now only have limited numbers remaining and supporters are strongly advised to get their tickets in good time to avoid the queues.

No7, is John Miles.....

Accrington Stanley v Fulham,
Saturday 23rd Jan 2010.

Match day arrangements.

Preparations for the visit of Fulham are now almost complete as we look forward to welcoming the Premiership side to the Crown Ground for our FA Cup fourth round tie. Well over 3,000 tickets have now been sold for the encounter, and with tickets on sale from the ticket office up to kick off a bumper crowd is expected for what is arguably the biggest game in the club's history.

Please be aware that there will be one or two procedues in place for tomorow's game that will differ slightly from a normal League Two match day at the Crown Ground:

Tickets and turnstiles
Supporters should retain their ticket stubs at all times as there is reserved seating in both the Main Stand and Clayton Stand, and these may also be used to gain a preferential allocation of tickets should we advance further in the competiion. There will be two match day collection points for tickets and ticket sales:
Ticket office (adjactent to the Stanley Store) - On the day ticket sales to home supporters for Main Stand seating and Clayton Stand seating.
Community office (grey modular building next to main offices) - Press and scout tickets collection, pre-ordered home tickets collection, visiting supporters pre-ordered tickets collection or purchase.

Pubs and lounges
Unfortunately due to increased demand for hospitality in the Buy-the-House Lounge the bar will not be open until the final whistle, at which time all supporters are encouraged to join us for the man of the match presentation. Accrington Stanley's pub the Crown on Whalley Road, ajacent to the stadium. will be open from lunchtime for all supporters.

Oh aye, I had forgotten the Whinney Hill tip factor! Might just be misbehaving with this still, misty weather, but I really hope not. What happened to the 750k that SITA were supposed to be spending on capping the stink back in November?????????
It seems worse than ever to me. How the local residents can moan about loss of amenity because of Stanley when they are blighted by the big stink from Whinney Hill is beyond me. Maybe its because the prevailing winds usually waft it over to the M65 rather than in their direction. Whatever , its an utter disgrace and shouldn't be tolerated.
