Oh Wynonie. I have been reading posts of Stanley on these pages for quite a while and I was actually going to ask whether or not it was a viable proposition that Stanley got back into the league proper. Being a Stanley fan from way back when they were chucked out and at the time cried my young eyes out when they were. It started because they(as I am sure you all know) with the amalgamation of third north with third south. That put a terrible strain on Stanley's finances because of travel. Not to mention that most of Accy folk went to see Rovers or Burnley even in those days. I can see that there are a lot of Stanley fans about but with gates like you mention, the question I was going to pose seems pointless. I really am at a loss as to what to say other than I wish Stanley and all the fans all the very best for whatever the future brings. (I really wish I was a multi-millionaire and was able to help Stanley reach the past glories. But that's not to be.)
Just keep plugging away at trying to get the fans and you never know. One day it might happen!!!
