On all accounts hes not offside and you got away with it, a poor decision by linesman and a weak referee for not allowing the goal.

Apart from that credit to your club, players and fans.
Sorry mate but the rules of offside state that when the ball is kicked forward and crosses the centre line if a player is forward of the last defender then they are offside and to be fair to the linesman he raised his flag straight away prior to Stanley players involvement.
