I can understand them getting frustrated with the current gates, but gimmicks like this aren't the answer. If this does come to pass, they'll alienate many of the current fans...including me! :(

nice April Fool joke that conned nobody - however should have been taken off at midday with a subscript saying that Telegraph and Sky fell for it.

But by keepin it on and then adding to the joke by saying "yes its a joke but we may consider" just makes them look like fools. Let's see how low the crowds go if they ever do change the name!

oh yeah and follow the Telegraph link and join in the debate with the Blackburn numpties that think the prices are still too high! use a couple of different email addresses if necessary ;)

Why not!

I personally feel that there would be commercial advantage to changing the name to "Stanley Villa" or "Accrington FC", for one season only. Thinking outside of the box, play in old style kits, rename the ground as Peel Park, old style programmes etc etc. Limited to one season we could fully exploit the limited nature of the scheme!!

Just a thought!!:rolleyes:
