I think that TM as got the all thing nailed down really, I went away disappointed with our overall performance, I don’t know what happening locally, but I felt for the lads, at time they seemed to be all over the place at times without the cohesion and determination of pervious games. I do believe we saw some of that fight in the last 5 or 6 minutes but far too little to late.

What I do believe is that Stanley are far better than what we are seeing and given our current standing in the table I am sure that something will give and we will see a more determined second half of the season.

The support for the Clayton End was strong as always in my opinion, apart for a disheartened pose a little after there second, the Ultras kept it going and on the all where a credit to there team. I heard a few dissenting comments and a lot of very pointless over the top swearing from an hand full of supporters but all in all a good spirited crowed form all ages….

The open aspect of the terraces can only force the numbers down over the winter months; I haven’t made a game since the Boston Game and it was the first time since last season that I had a taste of an Accrington Autumn. I bitter cold and grim out there and it can only get worse, We needs bodies through the gates in order move forward, I really do think its time for some real investment in the ground, weather protection and some basic comfort for the older element of the supporters before we lose the an all.

Nice to be able to get a pint yesterday……….
