I understand where many people are coming from, but surely he's only reflecting what many players think and have no doubt taken into consideration before deciding not to sign for us?
I think you have to take into account the relative size of the Towns as well TM, Nottingham has a far bigger catchment area than Accy, okay there are two teams in the city, but supporters don't change sides, they're either County or Forests and its not that long ago that both these teams were in the top division too. Stanley have come on leaps and bounds since the disaster of 63, there are not to many clubs claw their way back like Stanley have done, there are clubs that have gone and are long forgotten as league clubs, Barrow, Workington, Newport County are examples, although Barrow did quite well at Borough on Saturday
