Er, I don't think so. For several hundred years it was in Blackburn.

We don't agree very often Kipax, but I have to agree with you this time. This latest statement from Jones is nothing more than attention grabbing rhetoric. Absolutely disgusting and an insult to anyone referenced.

Mr Jones what a below the belt response im sure many people can say that about their grandfathers & they'd be insulted to be brought into a cheap shot arguement thats irrelevant.

So what if Eric turned down the freedom of the Borough...... does he have to accept it?!?! Thats upto Eric to accept or turn down the offer as he has well thats life get on with it.

To be honest i admire teh defending of the club erm eric fan club but really this tittle tattle as to this thread is a bit nonscence & really the concentration should be upon our club teams shaky defence !!

Well put Kipax.

With every post Councillor Jones makes himself more ridiculous, he's everything I've come to expect from a politician. If he can't supply the full facts maybe he should have kept his gob shut.

I think Rob's statement on the Fishy site is a well written and dignified response from the club, and shows a lot of qualities that have been sadly lacking in Councillor Jones' posts.

All

This does the club or the town no good. I do a Podcast on the web which covers Football in General but one part of the show is the Stanley watch. What do you think the majority of the feature will cover this week, you guys have given me soo much amunition it is silly. I am from accrington and very proud to be form the town, i now for work reasons live abroad. this is the public face of the club and the town which is being shown to the world mud slinging in public will only do everyone harm. I will probably brush over this in my show but what about others looking for this weeks easy story????

Councillor Mr Jones is only able to spout the political retoric because some less than well informed voters elected him. If he is as bad as people have said on this site, then he will NOT be re-elected. Now, bacl to more pressing matters......the roof over the Clayton End.......lol

No, it would be a Tory, but maybe we've got someone amongst us who could stand, we've got till 2008 by my calculations.
