[Exile on Spencer St]

Bit difficult to carry on a discussion that's on a closed thread but there were lots of good points.
I agree that away fans are vital to Stanley, and cover would offer some improvement. At Crawley (and Brizzle Rovers) there are 'temporary' canvas covers over stands, but they may be in less exposed locations.
The 'big screen' would not be particularly high on my priorities as a fan but I can understand it's main function is to generate more revenue from advertising and is, relatively, low cost (!).
I also understand the decision to postpone building the new Whinney Hill stand (don't forget, someone, to renew the planning consent after 3 years or make a start on its development, however small) but was disappointed to hear it.
I prefer standing, while I still can, but the few times I've sat in the 'main' stand I haven't found it particularly enjoyable as it's too low to get a decent view of the game. Players and other fans constantly blocking the view didn't help. The new stand would have provided a much better option, and might have been more attractive to dads/mums bringing smaller children. The little kids might have looked to the Clayton End and longed for the day they could stand in there too!

But, as others have rightly said, the miracle is that Stanley have fought their way back to become a League club, despite all the odds. As fans, however few, we are the lucky ones to be able to witness Stanley defying those odds.
