You might not have made that remark if you'd seen them hold premiership side, Fulham at bay for around 70 minutes last season until they somewhat unfairly had a man sent off. Typically, at the end of the match their manager decided the team were far too grand to change and shower in Stanley's changing rooms and they were whisked off to their hotel in true, elitist, Tory fashion.
Mancie, I've been to Old Trafford once a few seasons ago and I do not know how you, as a man of the people, can stomach it. It reeks of smug, self-satisfied, corporate capitalism - a place where all the traditional values of football have been cast aside in the pursuit of mamon.
You can laugh at Stanley, but I take a pride in standing on the terraces of the Clayton End in a real atmosphere with real fans, supporting my home town club.
Just like the Tories, the premiership clubs know the cost of everything and the value of nothing.
