You need to ask what you mean by "fame".......in the context of Atarah's thread, I would suggest that "fame" is that recognised at at National or even International level....in that respect, "Accrington Stanley FC" - in either it's old or it's reincarnation mode - fulfills the criteria. However, as regards it's current or recent players - however good they are - then it is self-dellusion to believe that they are good enough or well known enough to get into a "Hall of Fame". Sorry guys - you've got to face the facts.

The same applies to players who originate from Accy....I've simply never heard of the guys above (however good they may be). Admitidly, I not a footy fanatic...but I can still recognise the major players on the pitch; and Brett, I'm afraid, is not a major name.Lets get rid of this small town mentality and think big, eh?
