I've had to follow events from some distance (thanks to this web site) and the last few weeks have been like a soap opera, written by someone who likes to torture the audience before killing off the entire cast.
Those who rallied around the cause yesterday, in London and Accie, are heroes. Those who claim they 'own' the club but hid (or fled in the night to Chester) are beyond redemption.
Two issues now facing the heroes is
- how to wrest control of the club from those who actually own it (and I still suspect the deadhand of the cardboard millionaire), and
- how to get a Supporters' Trust up and running and legally constituted so it has a chance of taking over whilst there is still a league club to save.
The rules that have been dreamt up by the FA League and Govt mean that football business interests come before any other creditor, including Her Madge's Taxman, and it seems evident that any more money put directly into Stanley whilst the current lot control it is likely simply to prolong the agony. There is no guarantee it will go where it is needed.
How can those who want to save the club and bring it under the control of the real fans help best in the next week or so?
