She, whomever she may be. Is entitled to her opinion and is entitled to express it in public or via the media. It isn’t her fault that the board of Accrington Stanley ****ed us over by miss managing the affairs of the club. Venting your spleen against this woman; “witch or not” serves no purpose.

We “Accrington Stanley” are in very deep **** and we have less than four weeks tops to find a solution to this nightmare.

Now I have berated the ASSF and Mr. Khan for making demands for shares in return for financial assistance and sought to give Mr. O’Neil and the Board opportunity to resource funds via other means, so far we have raised a little more than £75,000 and those funding streams are drying up slowly, between now and the dead line I would doubt that “shirts, buckets, raffles, sponsored walks or runs, car boot sales and begging or outright prostitution would net us more than another £25,000, what we need now is major corporate sponsorship or donations from the business community or other well heeled clubs; when it comes to good will and relying on friends you soon find out how few friends you actually have.

Now is a time for heroes……if they don’t work their magic we’re ****ed.

I expected to see the club come forward and grasp this problem with both hands….what we need to see is someone from the club coming forward and managing this situation, co coordinating the fund rising effort and utilising media links to boost Stanley’s public profile to those that have the means to end this ****. Begging won’t cut it David, getting a finger out of each others arse and managing this situation just might….

Speak to us and tell us what your doing to resolve this situation; who are we speaking too and who’s offering what; and if their not offering anything why not.

Give us an answer to the shirt issue between the producer and the sale of shirts on eBay, are they in breach or have we not paid for them.

Give people a reason to part with their money…..The rest of us should wake up to the reality of this situation…….We like the Phoenix may well die again.
