Re: One Man Army
I too began watching football in the time when Stanley weren't there and actually went to the Rovers one week and Burnley the next, supporting both clubs except when they played each other when I was definitely a Rovers fan. I fell out of love with football in the late 1980's but in 2003 my sons took me to watch the Rovers at Leicester and I couldn't have cared less who won. A few months later, living in Buckinghamshire at the time, I decided to go and watch the Stanley at Barnet and as they say the rest is history. A 0-0 draw but I was desperately looking at my watch for the last 15 minutes just like the old days. Went regularly to away matches in the South east until I moved to Cornwall. Don't get much chance to see them now and the change of date of the Torquay match has stopped me getting to that one but if I'm asked now who I support there's only one answer and it's got be the Stanley.
