The crest of Accrington is what we wear on our chests and that is embodied by our Stanley. Lets get ourselves out of the pig**** and then let the inquests begin as to how and why the club has got itself in a state. We're not the first and we're not the last club to fail to pay the taxman. What worries me is that if and when we agree some sort of repayment plan to the IR, how on earth can we pay that as well as existing month to month?
Every single one of the 900 remaining fans needs to somehow find it in themselves to dig even deeper at each match they attend. Don't have one extra pint - have six, enter the draws, buy a programme. How many of the 900 buy a shirt? how many buy a scarf?
Forget berating the non-attendee's for not putting their money in ..... we have to start putting in as much as we can starting now.
When we come out of the other side no doubt we'll all sigh a huge sigh of relief and then go back to worrying about the reds for 90 minutes a week. This will result in it all happening again. We need to start realising, and acting upon, that the club is in dire need of massive effort. The downside is that 56% of the club seems intent on not listening to what the fans want or expect. It changes now.

Some very good points there Macca
Not too sure about the 6 extra pints though
The one thing you have pointed out there is the scarve's thing, would love to see everybody in the Stanley parts of the ground waving their Stanley scarf at next season's first home game
