Re: Stewarding

from graham charnley & mick schultz:

Many comments have been made about the Stewarding of our last home game against York City. We would like to take the opportunity of congratulating everyone involved in stewarding the match, particularly all the people who worked so hard in controlling the visiting fans.

Our stewards exercised great patience with the few visiting fans that insisted on breaking the ground regulations by blocking the walkway behind the goal. Stewards are in place within the ground to help people, support the ground rules and make sure that everyone including visiting spectators enjoy the experience of match days here in Accrington.
Without doubt the training and qualification of our stewards, on this occasion proved to be valuable.

The afternoon ended without any real problem other than a few boisterous fans at the away end who clearly did not want to do as our stewards were asking of them.

The events on the field against York City were also successful a 2 – 1 win, climbing to 3rd place in the table and a great crowd combined to give Accrington Stanley an excellent day.
