Questions for the Club
 

This thread is started with the consent of Accrington Stanley FC (ie: Rob) for you to post questions directed to the club. Rob will be looking in on a regular basis and answering or passing on questions. This ongoing thread will replace the regular online Q&A sessions I have organised in the past.

Please try to keep your questions relevant to the club and do not use text talk. This is not the place to ask about team tactics or team selections. This is also not the place to air conspiracy theories or ask joke questions.

Ask your Question and receive your answer. If you wish to talk about the answer then start another thread. Only Question and Club answers in here.. Any comments (Including thank you) will be deleted. Please read other peoples questions before asking yours and if you are not happy with the answer you get then tough! Asking multiple times will not get a different answer.

Fire away :)

When is the release date for the new kit?
The new home kit will be released this week, keep an eye on the website for further details.

Are we still looking to sign any more player this transfer window?
There will be a number of signings before the start of the season, we still need another goalkeeper for a start.

What happened regarding the end of season DVD/Video with all the clips from the stanley games?
Unfortunately we changed the company that provides the filming on matchdays midway through the season and so it made it difficult to collate all the footage. Normal service will be resumed in 2005/06.

When is the Ultra's Vs First team DVD ready?
I'll have some with me at training on Thursday

Is there any progress on the clayton end roof to report?
We are still waiting for the decision on funding

Could you please make a list of any Ground Improvements that have either been completed or started during the close season.
Most of the time over the close season has been spent tidying up the stadium with new coats of paint and general repairs. We have also removed the two floodlight pylons from the Coppice Terrace.

What has happened about the pre-season ticket for the friendlies?
This will be available later this week, and will offer four games against the Championship and Premiership sides (Burnley, Preston, Cardiff and Wigan) for the price of three.

Re: Questions for the Club

Re: Questions for the Club
 

sorry maidstoneaccy, hadn't seen your question, kipax just pointed out that it was waiting for an answer.

if you order a shirt online now you'll get one of the new shirts, i'll make sure that the pictures are updated later today.

Re: Questions for the Club
 

On our site, and from Eric's quotes in the Observer, Evil went for an undisclosed fee. On Wrexham's site he arrived on a free transfer. What really happened?

Re: Questions for the Club
 

i apologise in advance for being vague. unfortunately sometimes it is not in the interests of either club to disclose details of transfers, however lee mcevilly would not have left accrington stanley if the deal was not right for the football club.

Re: Questions for the Club
 

When are the new season tickets sent out?

Re: Questions for the Club
 

A) If the home side doesn't play in red, do Stanley take red shirts on the bus or do they only get worn away from home if the hosts wear blue ?

B) pre-season opposition : does John get to arrange them from a manager's angle (rather than for prestige) and what's the thinking behind trialing players against superior teams against who we can't expect any confidence boosting string of wins ahead of the tough season about to start ? (genuine curiosity - no criticism implied).
