In the next ten years though it would be nice if we could get into League 1 and compete with the rest of them, i think at the moment thats what i would settle for given the restraints of the club, if however we got bigger crowds, thus giving us more financial clout then maybe we could be looking at knocking on the door of the Championship but i think that things would have to take a big turn for the better first.

All this Crystal-Ball gazing is all very well Haz, and this is an optimistic and forward-looking thread indeed . But our concern must be with the present, and dire situation which FOOTBALL finds itself at the FES today!.
I know I seem to be banging away at the same old drum these days, but
it is difficult to see how a commercial organisation like Accrington Stanley FC can possibly avoid a steady downwards slide towards non-league oblivion, let alone aspire towards a place in the higher echelons of the Football League without a complete review of it's Management structures and STYLE being one of it's earliest priorities.
Numerous threads on this Forum, Media Reports, and the evidence which no self-respecting Fan can fail to observe in the playing arena week after week,achieve nothing except to confirm for everyone that Management-wise, things are far from being adequate!. The final proof of this could be seen in the body-language of the Team and it's Manager
as they capitulated to Barnet on Saturday last!.
So before we don our rose-tinted spectacles and build castles in the air
( Mixed Metaphors again!), I suggest that a continual questioning of those who are attemping to manage the Stanley, and currently achieve so little, as to where and how they are going to lead the club to success in the NEAR future.
It is a great club !, and we love it !, we do want to see it climb to lofty heights in the League pyramid, but HOW under present conditions can this possibly be achieved ?.
'WHAT ME WORRY ?'....Looking at the wider picture, I
am getting somewhat concerned !!
