There are two sides to every coin

We can sit in a corner and rest on our botties, or go with flow and look upon it as maybe something the Club can build on.

If the normal pre-season friendly does take place, it could be the Clarets fans first chance to possibly have a look at any new signings and give their backing to the team on their achievements, So it may have an effect of pushing the gate up in a big way.

It may push Claret Reserve attendances up as one would imagine their second string will become even more stronger.

I would be looking to build stronger links with both our East Lancashire neighbours and possibly look at it in terms of maybe becoming a feeder club, we had three signings through this network this season all with varying degrees of success.

Lastly I have mentioned on a few occasion the Clarets "Premiership Pledge" now kicks in, giving the 7000 plus season ticket holders at the Turf free footie next season maybe Stanley could work out some sort of offer for a discounted Season Ticket scheme, or an odd game or two that are perhaps midweek and would normally be low key affairs offer a discount for walk on's from either Rovers or Burnley on production of their season tickets from their respective clubs.

There are plenty who view Stanley as their "second " team maybe now more than ever it is time to look forward not sideways.
