Re: john coleman
Evnin all i have been reading everything on the forum with interest for about the last month without posting ie tranfers in and out JC and EW in and out poor crowds, no f in roof the list goes on and on,ASFC is never gonna be a chelsea,arsenal or man u money wise but accrington stanley is known world wide, i have travelled quite a lot this year and worn my stanley shirt with pride and lost count of the people that have stopped and wanted to talk stanley.
Eric and John have done fantastic things with the club both on and off the field and we as supporters should be proud and not asking for heads to roll ok we have a few problems on the squad front at the moment but there is time left to sort it and i,m sure when we find our feet again we will be soaring with the eagles,even though we have had a poor run we can hold our own in this league as i have not seen one team at the FES this season that we could not have beaten
The problems we have have many root causes and will not be solved overnight ie the transfer in and out situation the lower league clubs have been and always will be a breeding ground for the talent of the future and as stanley have found if you have a good un your not gonna keep him for more than a couple of seasons.As for players coming in and the so called low wages we pay i don,t call 27 grand exactly being on the bread line for what boils down to 90 mins serious work a week.
Regarding the crowds well as said before this town is full of apathy everybody jumpin on the band wagon including the council when things were good and now they cant get off fast enough, from what i have seen and read i think if asfc went under tomorrow only 1600 or so loyal fans would cry in their beer this town do,es not deserve stanley, remember last season big gates, open top tour of the town, civic reception where are they all now, one thing i am glad about is that EW did not take up the freedom of the borough offer i would gladly ring HBC tomorrow on behalf of stanley and tell them to stick it right were the sun don,t shine they have had a perfect opportunity to back the pride of lancashire and what have they done NOTHING, heres an idea instead of spending a small fortune of tax payers money on broadway and the market hall in the hope attracting a better class of pound shop why not give some money to stanley to put a roof over the clayton end, some bloody hope, even better idea sack a couple of councillers and save their big fat salaries and we could have a roof for both ends HBC and so called suporters of the reds you are a disgrace.
Anyway now i have got some of that of my chest i,m ready for tuesday standing on the clayton end having some light hearted banter with the visiting keeper in the wind and rain,im also ready for next season in leauge two or not, because i support ACCRINGTON STANLEY the club that would not(and will not) die
