One Man Army
- Thread starter Diego
- Start date
Typical Murdoch rag, cannot even get their facts right, Diego has stated in the Observer "that he hopes to return to watch Stanley play at the Crown in the future". Good luck to the lad, and I hope he does, now which team has world wide support from NZ to Brazil? And how about arranging a pre-season kick about with Flamenco?
Great to meet up with Diego on Wednesday evening and talk Stanley whilst also debating South American football in general, hope he enjoys the rest of his stay.
Great stuff by the Club (Rob Houseman) in arranging for him to be shown around and meeting the players, things like that make you appreciate more the friendliness that sometimes goes unnoticed and perhaps is taken for granted with the Club but is more the reason it helps make it more special.

Hey everyone,
Apologies for bumping a really old thread but I thought it was better than creating a new one right now.
I wonder if you people remember me - in 2012 I came to England on vacations, watched Stanley play away at Crewe and then went to Accrington to visit the club. I was introduced to the then manager (Cook), the players and the staff. My interview in the Accrington Observer ended up on the national newspapers! I still have a piece of the Daily Mirror back home with my picture on it.
Anyway, I'm coming back to the forum (my last login had been back in 2012!) to say that I'm now living in the UK for a year. I'm a student at the University of Liverpool, where I'm doing their MBA in Football Industries, and I've already gone to Accrington twice this season, to watch the L2 game vs Plymouth and the FA Cup win over Luton Town this past weekend.
I took a couple of friends with me (one Mexican, another Peruvian) who both loved the experience and tell me they're Stanley fans from now on. We even took a picture on the pitch at half-time - not sure if those who were there noticed this.
Well, I just wanted to say 'hello' again, wish Stanley the best of luck for the rest of the season, and I'll probably be back at some point to watch a few other matches. I wish Tranmere were still in L2 though, as it would be quite easy for me to watch a game there, since I'm living in Liverpool.

Yes I remember you from the Crewe game
Welcome back, Diego, and welcome to your mates. Hope you all get to a few more of Stanley's games. Good luck with your studies.
Should have posted last week then we could have all said jello!
Always welcome Diego
Always welcome Diego
Thanks everyone, I'll let you know whenever I'm going back to Accrington, as I'd sure enjoy meeting some of you.
Depending on which day the FA Cup game vs Boro is, I might even fancy going there! I'd like to visit as many stadiums as I can and I've never been to Riverside.

Yes, the Wife & I chatted with you at half time.

Our very own Stanley 3 Amigos!
Enjoy your time at the "Pool" Diego, you'll eventually get a grip of the "Scally tongue".
