Accy Observer

I think that the Observer will use the defence that the phrase Accrington Stanley Hooligan had inverted comma`s round it. Still write to the Editor, or inundate the letters page, we might even get them to sponser a match next season. Remember Stanleys exploits cover three pages of their paper for twenty six weeks of the year....what would they put in it`s place if they were banned from the ground?
 
was it not the police (not Les) that called him a Stanley Hooligan amd as such the paper was just reporting what they said?

The thing that Hurt me most was the Billboard adverts all over town why? the story was page 9 and how many page 9 articles get on the boards?
 
True.. But the police didn't tell the Observer to make a big headline out of it or to repeat it numerous times througout the article... The observer didn't even have to mention it... they know he isn't a stanley fan... But its a paper being sold in accrington and it makes good headlines for them and stuff anyone else..

Loweiy its me and you and every other stanley fan thats been tarnished... mud sticks.. no smoke without fire and all that...

They didnt have to make a meal out of it IMHO......
 
well at least its all died down now and by the time all the riots in Portugal have been and gone no one will remember this particular article
 
i also know this so called accy yob too,hes a Leeds and England fan only,ok he has been to the stanley this season but only 3 times at the most i only saw him at the fa cup games,but what i do know is he was one of them at morecombe in the home end when it kicked of with is prat leeds mates!!!!!
 
Could this be why the police refer to him as "Accrington Stanley Yob"?

This guy needs banning from Stanley before anything happens :(
 
Whats it all matter !!!!!!!!!!!! it will be todays chippy paper, we all know the truth, lets look forward to next season and have a good summer everyone :)

See you all Saturday
 
Well I disagree wiht you both I am afraid :)... . I don't want people to see me or my kids in an Accy top and wonder if we are the yobs the Observer tells them about.. The Observer should do a followup backing the club and pointing out that there are no known Accrington Stanley yobs and that we are a family club. Any reason why they shouldn't?

I just don't agree that they can insult Acccrigton Stanley fans and all we do is say oh well never mind....

To answer the question.. yes it does matter!
 
Totally agree with you Kipax but I can't see the Observer doing that can you? If they do, it'll probably be 2 lines buried in the middle of the paper somewhere & certainly won't make the placards as the original story did.
 
:rose8: Got to agree with Kipax, ever worn an England shirt abroad its always commented on about hooligans and yobs and of course this IDIOT will live on his fame and infamy as long as the Accy rag continues to print lies.
