I was also born in Accy (says it on my passport too Wynonie), lived on Primrose St, top of Ormerod St, but was never taken to watch Stanley (Accy apathy?!) then moved to Leyland when I was 7 because Dad got a promotion in the Fire Brigade. Always heard or found out what Stanley were doing from year to year but it was the FA Cup run in 1992 when I was 17 that drew me to watch my first Stanley game. Admittedly before that I was calling myself a Man U fan and was taken on several occaisons to Old Trafford as a young teenager. Also went to watch Blackburn a couple of times but I never called myself a Rovers fan. I was a Man U fan watching a game of football coz I couldnt go to Old Trafford. But since that cup game against Crewe at Ewood, Ive been nothing but Stanley - caught the train over to Accy for a home game soon after and that was me. Great club great people. Miss it a HELL of a lot.
