Yonmon, its not just people of a certain age who have a shiver down their spine, a quickening of the heart, and a swelling of pride when 11am comes along on the 11th day of the 11th month. I dont know of anything that is more important than our heritage. One of the reasons I have been drawn to our club is the inextricable link with our town, and the accrington pals mean so much to so many who passed before. I am grateful for your jogging of that collective memory. Its not appropriate for this forum to be hijacked away from Stanley, but I do feel good that we share values beyond the game.

Turning back to Stanley, I heard last night that a playing member of the 1962 team passed away earlier this week. Anyone have any information on that ?

take care
Ilyas
