Craney Off??

Folk are forgetting all that Ian has done for us in ALL the years he has been with us..... Short memories people, & folk who slag him off after he has bolstered our coffers TWICE should be embarressed...... Remember the promotions & good times, remember the screamer at the Bay, dancing at Burton Albion, buying us drinks on a Tuesday in Aldershot, the celebrations on the town hall balcony, his screamer against Rotherham, standin up for Bavs in Hereford bar etc etc.....

A legend

All the Best Ian, thanks for the money & the memories now do yourself proud at Tudders....
 
Ian is a top bloke a a great player and i wish him all the best.

What i am upset about is Andy Procters name being dragged through the mud!

A great player who always gives 110%

nobody minded him when he scored VERY important goals Barnet away last min winner.
Macc at home season before last 2-1 down up pops the doctor scores 2 crackers to keep us in the league.
Andy Procter a Stanley Legend!!!!!!

good look Ian John Mullin, Jimmy Ryan and soon Chris Turner are all good enough to fill the space left

nice one AP6 ;)

I dont think anyone was having a go at uhim but drawing a comparison that a ball winning engine type player is not expected to weigh in with goals whereas you might expect a creative player as highly rated as IC to score more often.

Andy Proctor and Ian Craney are two very different types of player and a comparison cannot be drawn other than on workrate. And number six wins hands down on that one
 
& while I'm at it

1. Many folk who comment have seen LESS THAN 30% of his minutes in an Accy shirt. (this season)
2. If it was for Ian, we may be playing Barrow this season & never ever achieved League Status

Thats all
 
:)Athough i agree with some of what you have written and bow to your long standing surport of Stanley:)..we all have different views of certain players Ian is agood player when he puts his mind to it,but hes moved on and so must Stanley the past is the past,like i said in other posts good luck to the lad and i hope he does make me and others eat our words,:)
 
oh no were not .with our new found confindence and zander i always try hrd against rfc injured at least a score draw...our end sold out as well....was going to go but couldnae get a ticket for our end..:D:D
 
Already posted my opinion but put it on under football thread so not to aggrivate the powers that be :) Its one of them things you have to get used to loosing a cool player.We did close season with 2 leaving to close rivals Bradford Park Avenue.It happens get used to it its football.Stands bye for neg Karma :rolleyes: well we can all play that game :rolleyes:.Unless you have money you cant keep hold of your star players.Get your scouts down to BPA and no Im not a fan obviously I hate them :)

I, as you, have my own opinions on Ian Craney. I have never liked him as a footballer from when he first came to us right up to the present day. The reason for this is I loathe seeing players with acres of ability wasting that talent by just being lazy. I don't doubt the genuine ability Ian possesses but he lacks the consistant effort and application. If you want me to list Ian's possitives i will but they will forever be outweighed for me by his negatives.

And may i ask what the hell any of this has to do with the ladies team? I wouldn't start comparing Craney to any of our girls if I were you, the girls may not possesses anywhere near the quality that Ian is gifted with, but I'll tell you now you'll not find any of them lazy or lacking in effort or determination. So don't even bother to bring the girls into this.


As for Ian bringing in 2 transfer fees, (less the £85000 to bring him back) I honesty thank Ian for that, and moreover Swasea and Huddersfield, for taking him off our hands!!! But I'd have thanked him more if he'd turned in consistant 100% effort performances for us while he's been here.

Forgive me but I really cant see what the above has to do with my post. Either you are corresponding in a language that only you understand or you genuinely feel that you have added both depth and wisdom to this thread, in which case I must enroll in an english language course come September !

......should have also said that his wages of £1800 per week with you guys was something that we wouldn't have agreed to.....as we've already got guys on or near that figure and IC's would have taken us over the leagues rules re: wage cap.

Saved yourself a bob or two, which may be the real reason behind his move.
 
Some very interesting (and contrasting!) views here!

Mr. Craney's departure is going to be a feature on 2BR Sport this Saturday and we're after your views on the situation: drop us an email - [email protected] with your thoughts on his departure and who should come in to replace him.

Looking forward to hearing from some of you
