I think like most of you, that Stanley would've eventually dropped out the league, if they had survived 1962. I mentioned in my previous post that the creditors sold two players for small fees when the club could've got considerably more for them and paid the debt off therefore avoiding the resignation from the league, but wouldn't the same crisis have occured the following season?, and if we'd have survived that, it was only a matter of time before the inevitable would have happened. The events of 1962 gave Stanley a place in history, and not only football but national attention as well. So in a way the resignation was of benefit to the club!
