And how much of the proceeds will be handed to Accrington Stanley or will it all go into the unknown Ultras coffers?

How about looking into the Ultras and whate we do/who we are and what we spend the money on before slagging us off pal

That were needless, mate. If it weren't for the Ultras, there'd have been no away coaches.

While I think the question was badly phrased, I can understand why it was asked. Anyone using the club to 'potentially make money' should be able to explain where the money is going to. When I did a fanzine I was asked on numerous occasions where the money was to be used and I was always happy to tell them (match/ball sponsorships, season tickets as prizes, etc).

As I have stated before on numerous occasions, if a fanzine is to be set up, then I'd be only too happy to help out in anyway I could - articles, etc. I also have some experience of page layout, plus the tools to do it.

........what's with all the bitterness/jealousy aimed at the Ultras. 'do anything to get on TV?' - please explain this intriguing comment....

I agree, what's with all the bitterness? The Ultras are one of the best things that has ever happened to ASFC. Win 5-0, lose 5-0, they are always in fine voice and are great ambassadors for our club. Anything to get on tele? Again, jeaulousy. The Ultras are only trying to open more peoples eyes to the club they have in their town. Their banners and flags have benn praised by home and opposition alike, as well as the Stanley managerial team. I try to stand as close to them as possible during games, as the atmosphere they create is second to none. The way some of you talk, it seems you want to keep Stanley a small club for the flat-cap brigade and those in the know. We are growing, and the Ultras have and will continue to play a part in that. They inspire the players, run coaches to away games and generally increase the enjoyment of matchdays. I sometimes feel priveliged to support the same club as them. The moaners got their drum took away, can't you just leave them alone now?

RANT OVER

Fanzine = top idea

I`ll 2nd that Alvin.
The Ultras are a great bunch and matchdays would not be the same without them.

I agree totally Alvin !

The Ultras are very good for Stanley, create a great atmosphere at every match and have done a wonderful job in helping to promote the club and keep its name in the public conscience.

I am relative newcomer to supporting Stanley, but have only praise for the Ultras - they are a great bunch of guys, very friendly and made me feel most welcome as a supporter !

theres no bitterness or jealousy just stating a fact oh and the clothhat brigade are the ones who kept the club goin through the lean years a bit disrespectful there why not try and get some good publicity and say we are servants to accrrington stanley not vice versa you are welcome to create a good atmosphere but you are not accrington stanley there was other supporters here before you oh and my opinion about the drum is you should still be allowed to have it its ludricous they have banned itdoes that mean we have to move ground if we get promoted again as the crowds get bigger dont take evrythin to heart as it is supposed to be a discussion board and eveybody has an opinion instead of slagging off the core support give them respect look forward to the good and bad times ahead only time will tell
