agreed, would be maybe a good move to do at start of new season, providing plenty of advance publicity, through media, could also charge away fans £25 to get wet through.:D

But then you have to charge home fans £25 for staying dry :)

Do us all a favour and walk away, not only Whalley (who at the time of writing has apparently finally left the club for good), but O'Neill and Heys aswell. You have contributed nothing to the Stanley cause ever since you have been at the club, and its time we, the faithful Stanley supporter say enough is enough.

Not sure that is fair at all in the case of Eric Whalley. In fact I strongly suspect on many occasions in the past there wouldn't be a Stanley if it wasn't for the club being funded for years before Ilyas came along.

I have tried pushing the Burton game this end but proving very difficult for take up

Clarets are at home so that rules out a lot of friends & folk I know but even at a fiver people who came on the Friday night games and the SOS games at Turf & the Crown when we played Rovers are pessimistic at best about putting money Stanley's way after what went on.

I tend to agree with Alvin on the gate sizes people are not going to rush back till everything is put to bed and the decks swept clean and the Club are actively out there as a presence as a Professional Football Club.

I know it is difficult and I really feel for anybody who has to work under pressures outside their jurisdiction there is the "Back the Boys" and this game for a fiver but short term sticky tape fixes are just that.

I will support the Club in whatever way I can to a point but I won't stick me head on the block as I have in the past till it's proved to me things have changed.

Actions really do speak louder than words

I don't think Accrington will be relieved of its apathy or forget about the contempt with which the local community was treated throughout the Whalley days until a new stadium under a new regime is under way. Because then the change would have a material manifestation.

Fiver a ticket in the Le Stade de Acc' would multiply our current gates many times over.

If you are getting 1000 away fans at a game by charging a fiver ( which you will have to do ) you're losing up to 10k a game. Will the home ends be filled up enough to do that ?

If you're going to have silly prices the only real way of doing that is through season tickets.
