Well done Mr. Whalley, no matter what anyone says or thinks we owe you……
Welcome Mr O'Neil, now then....about this footbal club of ours..........

Got to say this is a fair reflection of what has gone on and what Eric has done for The Stanley over the years
Eric, thank you for everything you have done for us and thanks for stepping aside to enable us to move forwards...
