Re: Lest We Forget..............
 

I thought the 1962 players were going to do a "lap of honour" round the ground, i would have liked to have seen them close up. Does anyone know if George Hudson was there? I know that he was a guest when we played Northampton last season, he made the half-time draw if i remember rightly.

Re: Lest We Forget..............
 

Yep, great to see the "old guard" there. Nipped into the club afterwards and had a chat to Jim Harrower, the son of the late Jimmy Harrower who, apart from being a player, was Stanley's last manager before they left the league. "Young" Jim was in the same class as me at AGS and I hadn't seen him for over 40 years, so a personal thanks to the club for reuniting me with an old classmate! :)

That's what i think...it should've been in the centre circle for the fans to have a better view, and announced over the tannoy as each player was presented with their gift. The only picture i've seen of the ex players so far was in yesterday's Lancs Telegraph, and they didn't bother to list them so we don't know who's who.:( Maybe there'll be more information in this weeks Observer.
