its not over yet,although i think we really need to put one over on the shakers, restore the faith and regain some pride, we`ve only just arrived in the league so give it time, keep the faith and `bury` the berry b**tards.!!!

Wynonie Harris · 23-12-2006, 22:42

Get a grip, man. It's only December!

The "Pirates of the Severn" have given the good ship Stanley a shot across the bows - that's all.

We're only just halfway through the season, plenty of time yet,
PANIC if we're still in the same place end of march

well said pipinfort. when we are back to anything near full strength we will pick up the points to survive. At the moment we are hit with injuries, suspensions and as a result players are also playing out of position. To be fair a full strength said would have struggled today. There are a lot of decent sides in this division and if we are not at our best we are always going to get punished. We've a couple of home games coming up which we can pick up points from, though wrexham away will be very difficult as i'm sure they will want to get revenge for the demolision job we did on em earlier in the season. Keep the faith.

so what if we go down?

what does it mean to everyone if we go down? Are we supporting the Stanley just cos they happen to have won a few titles in the last six or seven years? If that is the reason then the FES will be a happier place next season IF we go down. Too many doomers knocking around and you can all go to hell. I dont remember most of you when there was 20 of us in a 56 crowd at Bootle in the eighties, or get our arses kicked annually at Holker St, or what about taking over every portacabin clubhouse we ever went to. I'll still be watching Stanley when the ladies team are in a higher league, or when the players are supporting the Ultras team cos they are better. I'll still be the only Stanley fan at my works and I'll still be proud to tell everybody who I watch.

IF we go down, we will have made a few bob from increased fourfold sponsorship sold out for the season, we will have made the 1/4 million from Nationwide TV rights, we will have the parachute payments and we will have been there and lived the dream that for 44 years was not even thinkable of.

The club will learn from the mistakes, use the money wisely (would we have got 200k for Roberts or 150k for Craney as a non-league side? no) and will come back better and stronger for it. Coley and Eric will still be the men for me because they enabled us to live the dream if only for a few months. The lesson to be learned is that we need the staff on and off the pitch to survive. If you trim your christmas tree too much there will be nowhere to hang the tinsel.

Bring on 2007, and if it is half as eventful as 2006 then I will be even prouder to call myself a Stanleyite.

Well said, Macca, every word you spoke there is true. Incidentally, I don't remember most of you when there were 60 of us at a rapidly-decaying Peel Park in 1965, but I'll let most of you off as you weren't born then.

But you're right on the money there, if the unthinkable does happen and the glory hunters disappear, I, like you, will be standing on the Clayton End, proud to be a Stanleyite!

KIPAX · 23-12-2006, 23:54

for crying out loud... it was hard enough listening to bristol rovers fans singing it.. its bloody hard to come back all this way to read stanley fans saying it... especialy ones who sat at home in the warm all day just to then start telling us we are going down

SUPPORT your team! january sales are coming up...

oh and it was bloomin cold down there today

cmonstanley · 23-12-2006, 23:57

the gloryhunters have already dissappeared anyway sorry for being so gloomy you are right weve been in worse situations roll on boxing day i take it all back kick my butt ..

shakermaker · 24-12-2006, 00:22

Things can only get better people.

January is fast approaching when we will see John Coleman resurrect Stanley, I'm sure of it.
Scraping draws against Shrewsbury and Macclesfield have been good achievments with the bare bones of a squad we have had to put up with after the bad luck that has come to us through injuries, suspensions and curtis mcdonald.

I've got more faith than ever.
Come on Stanley.

We’re not going down, not this season or the next. The team have had some fluctuating luck over the last two months with changes in the line up forced because of transfers, injuries and a few hard knocks. After today the lads, John and Jimmy included have had their faces rubbed well and truly in the mire. This is a funny game of highs and lows and at this moment it’s a **** stinking low.

This team, the management and the supporters need to focus on what’s to come and not what’s gone, we can’t change the past, but we can dictate to outcome of the future.

This is a learning season and I believe we’ll end it mid table, it will be hard fought, we will say goodbye to some fantastic lads and welcome new heroes. Get behind them, have pride and be resolute. We are Accrington Stanley, we might **** up, but we never ever die...

PaulMullinsForehead · 24-12-2006, 03:01

Sack the Board!!!!!!!!! and for Macca n' spud , well!!!!!!
