away at nelson friendly match

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Should be a good day, big Stanley connection at Nelson (think it's through our new manager), with Chris Turner, Nat Taylor, Adam Stockdale plus ex youth players like Joe Wilkinson.

I've been following both clubs for a good few years so one to look forward to.

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Was announced on Nelson website last week, apparently Beattie's first game in charge Accrington Stanley to visit Victoria Park - Nelson Football Club

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

It stated on BBC Merseyside football show Southport where hoping to announce a number of high profile friendlies and our name was one of the teams mentioned.

Is this right?

This is where smudgie usually tells us about a "cracking chippy" :D

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

There is one at Kelbrook, but thats a couple of miles away.:D;)

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Where is Nelson?

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Two junctions further down the M65 from Burnley. It's about 10 miles from Accrington.

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Get on the M58 and head for Skelmersdale, then get on the M6 heading for Preston. Exit at J29 onto the M65 and head towards Burnley. At J12 take the A682 to Nelson. :D

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

A cheeky 20 minute train ride from Accy for this one methinks. :)

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Thanks.
I took the train to Accy for a game this season, it took nearly 2 hours door to door instead of the usual 40 minutes or less in a car.
It was also more expensive by train

If the public didnt subsidies the railway so much, maybe the 85% of tax and VAT we pay per litre wouldn't be so high

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Did it enjoy itself?

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Will definitely be going on this game

Re: 6th july v nelson
 

Possibly unlikely that we'll be there. They've nine pre-season games already listed on their website, including Chesterfield, although Wigan and Everton are shown as 'TBC'.
