In reply to the bouncer comment- the man in question did not take it on his own initiative or pocket club funds. Mick Schultz made the descision & ordered the gate to be opened as the queue for the York fans was long & with kick off approaching, as the ref refused to delay the kick off to get as many in to see the start of the game. Further the club are unaware of any offer from York as to compensating Stanley to the tune of £10K as was banded about on the stewards debate. The debate is still ongoing between both clubs re preventing such an incident again, maybe by making the York fans enter by ticket only should we meet again. This is unfortunate & due to a usual minority element who ignored police requests to restore order. If these idiots would not listen to the police what chance did the stewards who are unpaid volunteers have of making them behave? We could only watxch from the Clayton end but at least these lads & lasses did put themselves in front of the morons & faced up to them so good for them. It is easy to criticise but they did prevent an ugly situation from becoming nasty, & that is seen by the police prescence-which lets face it is a rare occurance at the Interlink thank goodness.
