I was born in the heart of Church, moving to Fern Gore aged 7 and then leaving for Blackpool at the age of 13. My grandfather was a life long Stanley Supporter until the hurt of 62; he died in 1969 after a long illness never really knowing of Stanley’s return. I have always been a Stanley Supporter the only ever flirtation with another club was when my school mates decided that Stanley wasn’t a real team so I very briefly offered support to Rovers or the Dingle Men, I don’t remember which because it last all of a week, if I couldn’t support Stanley, then it was to be none. I spent years, so many long years defending my Club and my Town from wankers and know now’t’s that thought it fun to take the ****. I came back to the fold and family which is Stanley in 2005/6 season.

Dave, if I nag you to embrace Stanley it to cushion the fall of Burnley as it tumbles into the lower leagues. It might take a year or two but at least with Stanley as a second club you can look forward to watching football in the Championship again.

One more thing Dave, if you are proud of your Home Town and your Home Town Team, you know exactly where we are coming from.
