Re: O'Neil number 20

if you can still support the club when gates are down to around 50 (as I did in '65), then it'll take a lot to shift my allegiances!

What was happening in 65? Thought it restarted in 69 I know I didnt start to follow Stanley until I played a friendly against them as an apprentice in 1971 and that was when I realised they were starting to put effort in to getting the club going, I say follow as I wasnt around Accy much in the seventies but allways looked for thier result and have stood a fight or 2 to protect the name. As for surporting 2 clubs Accy werent around much between 1960 and the 1980s and as everybody at school surported one of the other 2 has beens in the area it was taken as granted you would follow one of them, I was taken to Anfield to see Liverpool play against Burnley and have followed the reds ever since. I will still follow Stanley with pride and continue to follow Liverpool if it makes me less of a surporter then anyone else I will try not to lose to much sleep over it.
