Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit was filmed mainly in Burnley and Bacup I think, although the book was written by an ex-Accrington resident. Jeanette Winterson went to school with my sister.

I knew that MA would come in useful one day. ;)

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

but the lesbian scene was filmed on top of the coppice! I was about eight or nine at the time and was playing army on the coppice at the time. When we knew what was going on we tied a good few commando rolls to get past security!

There's still remains of the play trenches up there, dug by the Pals.

I've actually read, "Oranges are the only fruit", but she's so sour faced she must be a Rovers' fan.

My mate reckons all Northern films have shots from Coppice.

Wow, only came on to say how good Boco is, and suddenly it's culture everywhere.

Bon chance et bon nuit.

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

as a person that used to go stanley regulary, ill share the reasons i dont go, which may be useful for you

1. the ground is not a nice place, its horrible if we are being truthful

2. prices, £15 i heard is it? can get into ewood for that against poor premiership opposition


btw, i would have been at the darlington game but as it was raining didnt fancy standing in the rain, and i dont like sitting in the side stand.

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

What? You have to pay to go to E-dud? Surely they should be paying you to go and watch that s***e!!!

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

so scott why didnt you come and stand i the cow shed???

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

i really cant be doing with going in the side stands.

my brother went though, and came back **** wet through

i might however go forest game on monday, with it being a big opposition and big crowd?

is it ticket only ? or pay on gate?

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

I should think he does talk about low gates. What use are low gates? People will be able to climb over them and get in for nothing. Come on Eric get your act together and get these gates highered.

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

its all ticket scott, hopefully a big crowd!!!

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

id expect forest to bring a lot


but then you have the sky factor

still it didnt stop the crowd when you played huddersfield, great day :not_ripe:

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

forest will sell out their end imo, stanley should do the same but we should have also done that for the darlo game :rolleyes:

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

We should sell out our 1400 places relatively easy. Only hope he doesn't drop ( sorry I mean rest ) too many first teamers

Re: Reason for poor gates?
 

Surely your gaffer wouldn't be so naive!
If he wants a decent cup run he's going to have to give us a good game at our place; we're the type of team that shows up your type of team every once in a while...hello's to bournemouth & huddersfield by the by :)

Afterall, we're only a league apart;)
