Whilst I have every sympathy for Eric Whalley on what he is trying to do, I do think he has gone on for one season too long. If memory serves me correctly, did he not say if and when we got to the Football League, he would step down! The other thing is he does not endear himself to supporters and club workers. People owed money, people who are assisting without thought of remuneration are at best berated and at worst insulted, why? Those core supporters that attend week in, week out, love the club. Yes I have heard the rumours of a buyer for the club, trouble is Eric has his head buried in a bucket of sand. And another thing, are we likely to have to pay the suspended fine for our disciplinary record?
The one other thing I agree with on this thread is that the folk of Accrington are apathetic towards the club. They have to be won over, and we have to have good facilities for them, because I do not think the prices are too much of a problem, considering Burnley costs around £20 and Blackburn £30 a match I think.
I think every supporter attending the Bury match should drag along a friend (kicking and screaming if necessary) I am.
