Wot, no Ashley?Chris Grimshaw, Paul Beck and Andrew Procter being lined up to sign for Great Harwood!
Crooks sick of Glasgow Rangers.
To be honest he looks no where near good enough and isn't even doing it in the under 20s.
The fans are split between give him a chance as he's not match fit to looks like he should be collecting trolleys at Tescos.
Personally I would like to see him do well but I'm not sure he's good enough at the top level in big pressure games. It's hard to tell though as he's not getting games.
Sounds a similar story to when he first came to Stanley, remember all the moaning when we signed him? I was one who couldn't understand why on earth we'd brought him back but he proved me wrong - hope he gets his chance but if not, hope we've got first dibs on his return
That's pretty much what it's like. There is the chance he could come good but I don't think the system Warburton wants to play suits him.
Bit of gossip on a 'Gers forum yesterday about Crooks looking for a loan to get match fit. Mind you, it seems to have been started by the Scottish Sun 
eek
so believe it if you will.

ross etheridge on loan at alfreton town from doncaster. how the mighty hath fallen.
They don't. The nightclub connected to the ground was torched and the ground caught fire. Ground shared at The Crown for a bit and went under. Went out with a bang though. Last game they won 1-0 away at FC United in from of six thousand at Gigg Lane...spoiling the title parade.
To be fair the best thing that could have happened to Munroe's nightclub was for it to burn down, not the most salubrious place if I remember rightly
- damn shame for the football club thoughStill on Stanley's books, though not as a player. Martin had outstanding games when on loan at Rammy in the 2013/14 play-offs, beating Darlington and Bamber Bridge. Sadly, they came back down to the NPL 1st division last season.

This sums it up so well Di !....
A trip to Fleetwood, who now looked to running away with the title, would surely mean another defeat and although another depleted team put up a good show, we found ourselves two down soon after the break. O’Neil and Rogers then scored to put us level and Fleetwood were on the rocks before a dubious late penalty saw them home. Next was a simply ‘must win’ game as next to bottom Formby arrived, but a tight game ended 2-2 to all but condemn us to the drop. John Eastham also broke his arm in an accidental challenge. Things couldn’t get any worse? Later that night, a car was driven into Monroe’s drugs club and set alight. The town of Great Harwood cheered at the loss of this den of inequity, which has blighted the town for many years. Tragically, it also destroyed much of the Football Club, leaving us homeless, kitless, and our very survival in doubt. Neighbours Accrington Stanley, Darwen and Colne stepped in with offers of help, ensuring that we could complete the season. The players then showed true grit when they travelled to Bacup in the League Cup and led until the last few minutes when a two-goal salvo left us devastated. Paul Ma****er left to join Fleetwood, and with Eastham out for the season, the future looked as bleak as could be.
Wouldn't you agree ?...And who WAS driving that car I wonder ?.
Every good wish to you and Mum for Christmas and the New Year !
