there must still be a chance (you think) that Accrington Stanley is on the cards. What is the feeling on your forum? what are the chances? could you confirm whether an offer has been made or whether we have expressed interest?
A number of people are pushing for Stanley to be approached as regards possible purchase - Now there are 500 regular posters (ie every day or two) and 3,000 who post sometimes - the number of Stanley advocates is probably less than 40.

As regards the status of any contact between MFC and Stanley - all we know is that 7 clubs have approached MFC to discuss possible MFC investment. We know that negotiations are ongoing. MFC have recruited a well-known firm of solicitors to act on MFC's behalf and the investigation of all potential clubs for purchase with be significant and thorough. We do not know who these clubs are as all have insisted on confidentiality and are aware only to our takeover team. I do not know if Stanley are one of the seven but the takeover team have not approached any club. To the best of my knowledge MFC has not made an offer on any club - negotiations have not progressed that far. Stanley will be on the cards if Whalley approaches MFC and offers to sell the club for an affordable price. MFC's solicitors will then carry out due diligence and if everything is satisfactory MFC could make an offer - but it could also make an offer on one of the current seven (assuming Stanley isn't one of course)

2) I do not have an 'employed' status at the club but me and a few others have special privileges such as queue jumping, free admittance to Cup matches, buy one get one free at the bar etc - will this still stand?
You can make your case and we'll put it to a vote
