First of all the 3 league titles were the northern premier first division, the northern premier and the conference starting 15 years ago and ending 10 years ago almost. In the football league we have won nothing nor came close to it. We had one good season where we reached the playoffs but mostly struggled against relegation scraping by each season.

When they tried it at a higher level they were found wanting with Rochdale getting relegated and not looking like going back up. The 3 titles they had won counted for nothing there.

That said I don't think we should get rid because I don't think we can do better with what we have because we have next to nowt and don't look like we will ever have much more.

The way things look at the moment the next thing they win may be the northern premier again because I have seen nothing to suggest we will win much in the league. Fortunately we are happy just to be in the league and success for Accy is measured by keeping us in the league. They said themselves when they left for Rochdale that they had gone as far as they could with Stanley and that was why they left or was it just for the money?

It is Dav0 tactics to call everyone who criticizes the management a hater. Perhaps it's just that people are fed up paying good money for the poor fare on offer!

Crowds are dwindling and may get worse unless things improve so how about some performances to get the place buzzing. Keep the faith is a sound bite not a battle cry. Most people still back the manager so rather than moaning about the fans give them something to cheer. Show us the skills that won those 3 titles but in the words of the song "those days are past now and in the past they must remain.." Football managers are only as good as their last game. Fans don't care about what happened over 10 years ago they care about now so talk less and do more.

The murmurings of discontent were apparent on the Clayton end yesterday however it was only a few. Don't let it grow because football fans are fickle people.

The same could be said about the small band of Coley lovers all liking each others posts but fortunately the vast majority on here are just Stanley fans. We will support the club, we will support the team and we will support the manager but don't take us for mugs.
