Well, it's easy for me to agitate from afar, so why not: back in the mid 1990s, Brighton fans were becoming increasingly upset with their chairman (Bill Archer, I think). They took the fight (peacefully) to him. This included, whilst on an away trip in Lancashire, demonstrations outside his...

Get in! Thanks Dan. That's made shopping in Milton Keynes more bearable...

Happy new year to all Stanley fans. Hoping the DoNs new year resolution is to (insert text that the mods wouldn't like). Hope those of you heading to the Crusty Pie ground realise before 3 that Borecambe have moved. And we claim three points. (you are my Craney, etc)

Well, perhaps if the present regeime stopped using HMRC as an unofficial overdraft, we wouldn't 'always' have a tax problem. If only there was a wealthy long-term fan with a vision and the resources to back it up...

Haven't read the story, but I suspect if Heys is denying there's a tax problem: there's a tax problem. Here we go again...

Same old Stanley, Cashy. Kim Jong Il is more open. It beggers belief. I don't buy the conspiracy theories - I've said before that I'm not sure anyone at the club is bright enough to think it through - but someone needs to budge a little before all that good work goes to waste. And on the...

To my mind the Ultras are the one selling point bout Stanley for new fans. Our neighbours are always going to be able to offer more glamour and glitz (even the Dingles) and better facilities so the atmosphere at Dtanley has always been the bog draw. Even on the non league days the craic behind...

Pains me to say this, as received wisdomos that it's pure madness, but I hope that, unless things change at the club, ownership of the ground will remain separate (perhaps Ilyas-council-trust). That way if the numpties in charge do screw it up at least the ground is protected. I may have missed...

Redraine: The fact that he was even willing to become involved with the Vaughans should disqualify him from any involvement with any football club. Ever. I can't for the life of me see what EW is looking to achieve. Already, he's poisoned his own legacy. Surely he should leave now whilst he...

Blimy. Four comedians for the price of one :D

Great post Carpon. Mr Khan, over to you: If the situation is how Macca understands it (and from what I've gleaned from Ilyas and Macca from here it seems likely), then the time has come to call the debt it, transfer it to equity and seize control. The owner, be it the cardboard milionaire or...

Great post. Watching from afar, the way people have rallied round after Coxy's death sums up just why Accrington Stanley is such a special little club. Credit to the club for their part in this. Sad times but it makes you proud to be a Stanley fan.

I can't disagree with you there. Proper non league footy. The team slightly earlier with a spine of Eddie Johnstone, Bernie Hughes and Paul Beck was something as well... Steve Lampkin always summed up what that side was all about. Not the most gifted of players but would tackle a bus and would...

Football19: Apologies. Putting two and two together and getting 5 it seems. Would have sent you a PM to apologise but can't remember how! However, IF what you suggested earlier on is true, it may give the player and Stanley some wriggle room. I presume that the club are aware of any concerns...

Sorry for the confusion, shaker. Having re-read my post, I can see why you'd think I said that in response to you, and as for the halloucinogens, never had them and if I had I'd have exhausted the supply in the Tony Greenwood years, trying to convince myself that the team weren't crap. I was...
