[quote author=leeeee link=board=general;num=1056696816;start=0#4 date=06/29/03 at 09:09:39]£15000 is a lot of money, do they say where it is coming from? Who makes decisions like that? Not everyone in Hyndburn supports Accrington Stanley and certainly not everyone even likes football. I might just start a tiddly winks team and see if I can earn myself some of my taxes back in council sponsorship.[/quote]

Wake up leeeee. Even if you aren't a football fan surely you can see this as a sound investment. The publicity it will bring the area will be great and if/when Accrington progress to the football league it will bring a lot more money to our area.  You should be proud to see our local team doing so well, as most of the people in hyndburn are, including, obviously the council.
