Re: Yeovil match thread

As per gates...unfortunately Accrington just isn't a football town. In the same way that despite winning the FA Cup and being in the Premier League for years didn't attract the gates Wigan hoped for as they were and are a rugby town.

For all their faults, I admire the town of Burnleys siege mentality. Us against the world and the football club as a symbol of that. The club is the one thing around which everything revolves. Accrington just doesn't have that. There's no pride in the town...never mind the football team.

Point in case being the Calder pub in Accy centre erupting when Stevenage bagged against us in the play offs.

I don't know what the answer is. All we can do is keep winning and make match day a better experience facilty wise, to take away the excuses the Accy public frequently cite for not coming.
