exactly. who are we?
in 1993 we celebrated our centenary year with a game against Blackburn Rovers (100 years since Accrington Stanley were formed)
last year we celebrated the 40th anniversary of our rebirth (1968, but the first game was 1970)
we call ourselves Founder Members (Accrington FC first played in 1878 and were still playing when Accrington Stanley were formed
so in the absence of any substantial reasoned debate on this forum for many a month, what do you class as Accrington Stanley?
the facts are that Accrington FC were formed in 1878 and ceased playing on 18th January 1896
Accrington Stanley were first formed in 1893 but played their first match in the 1894-95 season
so we aren't founder members then?
