Re: Transparency....

I agree, it seems like deja vu all over again.
Usually companies are not transparent because they have something to hide. Unfortunately, in Stanley's case, I suspect the "something" they don't want us to see is actually that they have "nothing". No money, no accounts, no contracts, no wages.
Stanley are swimming at the bottom of a murky football pool where a few sharks at the top are being fed and fattened by debt and greed. Football clubs are in a worse shape than an Icelandic bank sitting on top of a volcano, but no-one is going to bale out the minnows. That's transparent.
£80K to improve the pitch is possibly as much as the club can afford in a season. New stands, roofs, training grounds, long term contracts may come, if they do, slowly. Step by step, one at a time.
It would be great to get a different regime in charge of the club but even with Messrs Khan and Marsden, the club will have to struggle to survive. It always has, and always will, I guess.
But, heh, we're still in the Football League next season. Stanley, in the league! So enjoy it while we can can because we, more than any other fans, know "nothing" can last forever.
