Nothing but nothing has happened, oh yes they have reduced the number of prizes for the monthly draw!..Its a case of take all from the supporters then sod them!! I had the pleasure of going to an ecent at our local Primary School where Owen Coyle spent from 7.30 to 10.00pm answering questions from fans. A most intelligent and informative young manager who was prepared to give something back to the fans and raise over £1000 for the school. I don't see Eric Whalley or the management of Accrington Stanley doing anything like this. Sorry they want you to support the Sportsmans dinner (another opportunity to demonstrate how not to do things!) All in all they have lost another supporter.. Iv'e had enough of the tinpot setup and will take my custom elsewhere.
Have you contacted the club? Email, telehphone or even fax?
Have you been to the club shop?

My view is that the club is always going to have little different problems like this! All football clubs do, whether thats ticket mixups, online sales etc. This football club isnt perfect and neither is every other in this league! Ask any other fans from the clubs in this league and they will have incountered a problem. This is a big problem for you as your obviously not getting your £20 worth for your Gold Bond! But why come and post your problem on the forum and slag Eric off? Eric has put plenty of money into this club and has got us back into the football league! Has anyone actually thought that its not Eric hanging onto the football club and its a fact that no-one wants to buy it!? And to compare it to Burnley is a different matter! Just look at the size of their club and set up compared to us! My answer to your problem would be to live and learn and not do the Gold Bond any more!
