What yellow shirt? Ears? I have no recollection of any such stupid attire...

Best moment of the season up to now is a tough one to pick. Perhaps Rob Heys arguing with a septuagenarian whilst doing summarising at York last Saturday.
Or Hobby's immense minibus driving skills - crossing 6 lanes on the M1 on the way down to Gravesend
Or maybe the look on Gray's defender Andrew Sambrook's face when Gary Roberts back-heeled the ball around him to set up Mullin's goal.

However overwhelmingly my moment of the season occurs every time I hear the noise coming from the Ultras at away games. Even in a press box at the other side if the ground, and wearing headphones, somehow I can still always here why Accrington is wonderful, or which opposition player is getting the most stick. Shakermaker used the word pride. I agree completely. It's a privilege to travel with and be associated with these supporters.

Despite occasional instances of drunkenness and embarrassment!!!!!!!!

But I hope I'm not alone in thinking that the best moment of the season is yet to come...
