Re: Pre-season friendlies

First chance I've had to see Stanley since last season, and what a transformation.
Gone was the panic stricken hoofball, replaced by a calm, confident team playing fast attacking football. Where...

Re: Bits & Bobs

Your wish is granted!
Another local derby to make up for the loss of Morecambe.
You can't beat success for bringing out the fans.
No doubt the lattics will bring a bumper following to the Wham.

Re: ASFC Academy

The utilitarian interior of 'Coley's Bar', open to the roof with exposed ceiling ducts etc., was obviously a design choice aimed at keeping costs down.
Unfortunately, the result is a giant tin-can...

My earlier criticism regarding the market hall fiasco made no mention of any particular political party, merely pointing out what a self-inflicted disaster it has been for the town.

I recall seeing all of the plans submitted for the new clubhouse development at the time, they were professionally produced & publicly available on the fishy site.

Re: Statement from Andy Holt

Taking the statement at face value, I think he's entitled to 'a bit of a rant'
This is a man who's invested heavily, not only saving our club financially but developing the Wham into a decent...

Safe & Sound

What an amazing result today to ensure another season in the EFL.
Who expected us to beat high flying Walsall away?
I vote to keep our blue 2nd strip for another season.
It must be our luckiest...

Re: A second half to forget - Tranmere home

You couldn't make it up!
It only took 23 minutes to go from another season in L2 to the verge of the abyss.
The buck stops with Doolan.

Re: The no point delaying it we've lost at Bromley thread

The most embarrassing, inept performance I have witnessed.
The scoreline could actually have been even worse.
Bromley were everything Stanley were not. Slick in possession, they played fast...

Re: Four points off the drop zone - Morecambe 23rd Placed Away Post Mortem

John Coleman's contribution to Stanley's success in the past cannot be questioned and he will always hold a place in our hall of fame.
Although I would suggest he had as many dissenters as...

Re: Four points off the drop zone - Morecambe 23rd Placed Away Post Mortem

Stanley could & should have been 2 - 0 up by halftime, such was our dominance in the first 35 minutes.
At least two gilt-edged goal scoring chances were wasted.
Those missed opportunities came...

Re: Cod Almighty - Tony Crosland your boys took a beating

The ref must have had a right pair of lungs.
He blew up for fouls 29 times, stopping play on average every 3 minutes!
Did our old friend Harvey Rodgers have a decent game?

Re: Carlisle away

They've won 5 of the last six games & stand 1 point from automatic promotion with a game in hand.

Here's an image from the good old days, when you could field 15 players and no one had a clue.

Re: vs Bromley

Please define 'horrible'?
Was it that they committed fewer fouls than us - or that they scored 2 goals & left with 3 points?
Perhaps it's time Stanley stopped being so 'nice' to our opponents.
