Alan, I'm in complete agreement with you.

I'm saddened to see so many 'supporters' turning on Rob Heys at the time when he needs our friendship and understanding.

Rob has recently made some significant errors of judgement, largely I believe due to a misplaced sense of loyalty to his employers.

However, these failings pale into insignificance compared to the numerous positives which he has achieved for Accrington Stanley during the last decade.

Some people believe that "it's not how you start, it's how you finish".

Well, I'm not one of them. I believe that it's how you've lived for your friends, your family and your football club over these many years.

On that basis alone Rob Heys deserves far more respect than he is being given by some of the ignorant loudmouths on this forum . . . most of whom have never, and will never, contribute even a fraction of what Robert Heys has contributed to Accrington Stanley.

Criticise the Directors by all means.
They're there to take the flak.

But don't crucify Rob, a hard-working and decent man who must at this moment be bewildered by the bile, venom and sheer nastiness which is being directed at him.
