I wonder if you people remember me - in 2012 I came to England on vacations, watched Stanley play away at Crewe and then went to Accrington to visit the club. I was introduced to the then manager (Cook), the players and the staff. My interview in the Accrington Observer ended up on the national newspapers! I still have a piece of the Daily Mirror back home with my picture on it.
Anyway, I'm coming back to the forum (my last login had been back in 2012!) to say that I'm now living in the UK for a year. I'm a student at the University of Liverpool, where I'm doing their MBA in Football Industries, and I've already gone to Accrington twice this season, to watch the L2 game vs Plymouth and the FA Cup win over Luton Town this past weekend.
I took a couple of friends with me (one Mexican, another Peruvian) who both loved the experience and tell me they're Stanley fans from now on. We even took a picture on the pitch at half-time - not sure if those who were there noticed this.
Well, I just wanted to say 'hello' again, wish Stanley the best of luck for the rest of the season, and I'll probably be back at some point to watch a few other matches. I wish Tranmere were still in L2 though, as it would be quite easy for me to watch a game there, since I'm living in Liverpool.

Yes I remember you from the Crewe game
