Stanley chairman receives nomination
Accrington Stanley chairman Ilyas Khan has been nominated as Lancashire's Entrepreneur of the Year at an awards ceremony to be held at Ewood Park on Thursday evening.

The Lancashire Dealmakers Awards 2010 is being run by Insider Media Ltd, and is designed to celebrate the continued strength of the county’s dealmaking community. The nomination is great publicity for the club and highlights the fact that Accrington Stanley is now beginning to be noticed for the right reasons within the local business community.

Speaking about the nomination Ilyas said "I am thrilled that Insider Media has seen fit to nominate me and ASFC for this prestigious award, and honoured that we made the shortlist. This reflects the incredible progress that the club is making – and indeed it is a true turnaround.

"I would like to make it clear that whilst the nomination names me, as with all entrepreneurs and business men I am only as good as the team that I work with, and in getting to this stage I pay tribute to the hard working and often anonymous staff at the club and all its many volunteers."
