But we ARE overshadowed by this. It cannot be otherwise - we have one week to ensure that the tax bill is paid. I would love to have a long-term outlook. But I find it difficult to see beyond this week. And assuming we do survive this week, we cannot "generate income to move Accrington Stanley on and away from this situation". The situation will live on until the 'short-term' loan is repaid.

By the way, does anyone know how the sale of 'shares' is going?
I think at the end of the day the club is bigger than Mr. O’Neil and the Board, unfortunately they own it. So unless people want to take the same attitude as those alleged to be taken by the two Directors (who remain innocent until proven Guilty) then we have two or three options. Just say **** it and let it roll over and die, trust in the Club (they have more to lose than the rest of us) or have faith and believe that this will pass into history and aim for higher things.

I believe this will pass into history; I believe that we all need to be positive and trust that this matter will be resolved and that we the supporters and the club can agree common ground for the future. Lets talk Stanley Up, lets have faith that they won’t let us down and lets hope that just maybe there is someone out there big enough to step up the plate and be counted.
