If a pre-season game with a team of 'unknown potential' can provide Current Team Members , Newcomers to the FES, and Trialists with an opportunity to get to know each other. Whilst providing fans and visitors with a 'novel' Soccer occasion, extending a bit of 'Stanley hospitality' to a Touring team, and making a 'caring' gesture to a most charitable cause.......then this can't be a bad move on the part of our Club.....

What better way for the best Fans in the Football League to 'get involved'?.
