Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
:engsmil: Is it just me or do you not get fed up, when you look through the posts the day after Stanley have played, the attention they receive in
print amazes me, if all these pundits paid to watch them the ground would
be packed every match.:engsmil:

Errrrrr in a word ....NO LOL

Stanley is a huge part of the furum as its our local footy team thats doing great so it should be supported locally as after all its a big part of Accrington:rolleyes: :D

I'd start packing now Ianto.W >>>> can't win with this one. Used to annoy me a little trying to mow yer' way through all the threads at weekend to find a general chat which gets pushed off the board on Today's Posts.

Seems to be the nucleus of the members though and and keeps the site active, and difficult to find new topics for general chat, nostalgia, etc., which hasn't been done before.

Amazing though, isn't it, how many things they find to talk about before and after a match ? :D Analyse just about everything from the beer to goal nets.

Not interested in football myself, but if I were, would definitaly support our local team. There, that's kept me in the good books. :D

Instead of whinging, why don't you come and watch them? And don't give me that garbage about not being interested in football...lots of non-footy fans have come along to Stanley and found that watching their LOCAL team is a completely different experience.

Even if you don't, I wouldn't get too fed up with them. They're the best thing that's happened to Accrington for many a long year.

hideing behind a keyboard, would you have had the bottle to post a thread that would provoke adverse karma.

Re: Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
Why does it take "bottle" to start a thread that provokes adverse karma? Or does karma mean that much to you? After all you're "hideing (sic) behind a keyboard" just as much as I am.

Anyway, to get back to the point of your post. Stanley are dear to the hearts of many people that post on here. So it's obvious that there will be a lot of posts about them, especially after a match.

Your whinging about it is mean-spirited and petty. Stanley have brought a great deal of positive publicity to this town in recent years and deserve all the support they can get.

I take it you've never been to a match. I advise you to make a visit in the near future. You may well find it an enjoyable experience - many on this site who previously had no interest in football have done so and returned again and again.

I said it once get off my case go and watch
Stockport if thats all you have to do, and stop whingeing. Normal people
can't afford footballers wages,this thread was posted with the intention
of provoking decent replies, :we all know where you stand: :rolleyes:

Wynonie Harris 27-08-2006 22:10

Re: Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
In other words you have no logical arguments to support your case. Or are "decent" arguments only those which agree with you?

And what's all this about watching Stockport? I'm a Stanley season ticket holder...or are you just fishing, trying to "provoke" a reaction?

Oh dear someone has a problem why are you so bitter?:confused:
I see you list your Interests:
crossword puzzles, golf (armchair),cricket all levels
and sensible converation.
It might be an idea for you to switch off your computer and go and do a crossword, Stanley do not need subsidising but I watch local cricket and to me that is one sport that needs more money, as for the sensible converation I'm still waiting.:)

:engsmil: Millions watch football every week, some of them leave it on the ground and get on with other things in life. Like trying to have a
decent discussion, without being bored to tears with football.
Hence the thread starter, someone has to post them.

Right, I've read it again and I'm still non the wiser. People subsidise football teams by paying their money at the turnstiles, don't they? So, are people who attend football matches not normal in some way?

Why should we "leave it on the ground"? Many of us like to discuss/argue about the match, player performances, incidents, attendances etc. It's Accyweb, so we talk about Stanley. Just because it bores you, does that mean we shouldn't talk about it? Plenty of threads on here bore me, so I don't read them.

And to return to my original point, Accrington Stanley has done this town proud over the last few years and it shows a particular meanness of spirit on your part to start whinging about people talking about them on the town messageboard.

Furthermore, if you're so upset about being called a "miserable sod", you may find the rough-and-tumble of Accyweb takes a little getting used to. I've been called much worse on here (especially by Blackburn Raver!).

junetta 27-08-2006 23:49

Re: Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
I have to confess that I've never watched them play. I was a youngster when my father came home in deep gloom after watching the last match in the league. My mate's hubby played for them for a while during the seventies and I've always checked their progress.

Not having lived in Accy since I was nineteen, my heart is there and Accrington Stanley says it all!

My Renault Clio proudly displays his Stanley sticker for the whole of Tenerife to see............you would be amazed at how many folk toot as we drive along...........fed up, never.

when i had a bar abroad loads of holiday makers came in asked me where i was from- accrington i used to reply - that was immediatly followed by accrington stanley !!!! so they have without doubt brought the name of accrington to the fore, also much profit to my till, so i think you are being very mean minded ianto.w its a local forum and many people like to talk about them, by the way i am not one of them. but i do not object and i fail to see what your trying to acheive - apart from p*** people off. P.S. notice you ask people to have patience in your profile- that seems strange you dont seem to have any.

:engsmil: It seems like one of you is getting the point at last, I have nothing but regard for
Accrington Stanley, football in general is suffering from over exposure
listen to the wives gripe when it clashes with their favouite soap.
Furthermore thers nothing I like better than a good scrap, so bring it on!

shakermaker 28-08-2006 12:20

Re: Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
So let me get this straight.
You think that Stanley discussions are inadequate to the forum, and are getting in the way of General Chat's 'sensible' topics.
...yet you start this thread which serves as much purpose as a chocolate fireguard.

Nice.

If you like a good scrap, how come you're bottling out of this one? You didn't start this thread by talking about "football in general" receiving over exposure. You started it off by complaining about the number of Stanley threads on this site. Now, suddenly you're being all nicey nicey about Stanley. At least have the courage of your convictions and tell us why you think we shouldn't talk so much about Stanley on Accychat.

Wimp!

Yes, there are other things in life besides my opinion. There's your opinion which I'd love to hear more about, but you don't seem to have any very cohesive arguments on this subject, do you? After your whinging about Stanley posts was challenged, you stated that normal people can't afford to subsidise football. Presumably, the logical conclusion to that was that Stanley fans aren't normal people and therefore shouldn't be talking about their favourite subject on this site, thus getting in the way of your cherished "decent" discussions. Again, when you were challenged, you shifted your ground and said that you were talking about "football in general". The fact is that you have not given one logical reason why we shouldn't post about Stanley on Accyweb.

Furthermore, I wasn't aware that I'd asked about your participation in sport. I merely suggested that you might like to attend a Stanley game to see what the atmosphere was like for yourself.

Your last point is spot on, though - you've obviously started this whole thread in an attempt at attention-seeking. Congratulations, it worked!

PS - Regarding the karma, that's the first lot of negative karma I've given out in two-and-half years on the site. I think that speaks for itself.

Living away from Accy means the only way I can keep up with what is going on with the team is through here. It is serious funny and informative for what I want and to be without it would leave me in limbo. Members on here can pass on the goss and I can read it and enjoy it. There is a dedicated set of supporters on here who's love is second only to their nearest and dearest and they are proud of it and so they should be.

Oh dear, looks like you've been on the Merlot again. How else is one to explain such a torrent of half-baked gibberish? Possibly it's a smokescreen to divert attention from the fact that you have no plausible arguments to support your case.

I think less insults and a little more common sense would have made this thread a little more constructive, at the end of the day there are enough reference points to guide would be readers in their choice of thread.

What he's saying (I think) is that when he looks at Today's Posts after a match, most of the threads are concerned with Stanley, because obviously we're all chatting about the game. And, because he's not interested in football, he finds that inconvenient. The obvious inference is that he'd prefer us not to talk quite as much about Stanley, because it makes it a little more difficult for him to get to other posts.

I say "I think" because after his initial outburst, he started to become evasive, throwing in red herrings about footballer's wages and eventually lapsing into semi-coherent gibberish.

Either he's trying to stir things up as JT and Spuggie say or he's become embarrassed about the sheer selfishness of his initial point of view.

:Banane47: Yes your right he's not entitled to disagree, after all it's not
normal not to like Stanley, all normal people like football, and how anyone
dare say say they dont like Stanley-well I ask you what is the world

...and once again you neatly evade the question. You were the one who started this thread by whinging about the number of Stanley posts in the Today's Posts posts section after a match. The inference can only be that you want us fans to post less Stanley-related posts. Can you explain to us why you think this is justified?

Either put up or shut up!

Ianto.W., have you ever thought about a career in politics? Your ability to evade questions makes you eminently suited for that profession. However, you're obviously determined not to answer the point you raised in the first place, so what the hell.

As for the "crap result", veteran fans like myself and Bagpuss have been following Stanley for far too long to let a little thing like that worry us. Onwards to Nottingham! :cool:

A true fan or supporter will take the bad with the good and will always believe that the bad will be outweighed by the good. Stanley have had their bad times and now the good are back The odd hickup wont upset them as they have seen the really bad.

I'm not quite a veteran yet Mr Harris, in fact up to 3 years ago I was a season ticket holder at Anfield, I watched maybe 3 or 4 Stanley games a season. At the time it was becoming too expensive for me to follow Liverpool full time so I sold my ticket and started to watch Stanley. To cut a long story short I love following Stanley and own a season ticket and haven't missed a game this season home or away. I still think of myself as a Liverpool fan but how its turned out I am now a Stanley Supporter full time.:)

Because, in his heart of hearts, he wants to be a Stanley fan! As you can see, he had a traumatic childhood, standing on a windswept Coppice, gazing forlornly at the happy throngs inside Peel Park. He started this thread because of his childhood feelings of rejection by Stanley. Time to submit to your destiny, Ianto,W, and come and join us. Your place on the Clayton End is ready and waiting for you!

So watching Stanley's attractive football every week (one of the only teams in the league who play like this) is crap, yet posting your drivel every single day in a nonsense thread - isn't?
Just because you are so biggotted to feel that keeping a grudge about prices for 50+ years is ok - don't take it out on loyal Stanley fans with tact & observation skills who like to discuss and debate the issues of the games you mardy bum.
In short - get a life.

You can't fool me, you little old wine drinker, I know that the abuse and insults conceal a deep-rooted desire to join our happy band of comrades on the Clayton End, effectively exorcising the inner demons caused by your childhood deprivation.

Just one thing though, old fruit, it is actually a criminal offence to be drunk on a football league ground, so I'm afraid you'd have to forego your little "habit" until later. I'm sure you wouldn't mind, just for one day. See you soon, sport! ;)

Got a thing about bananas, haven't you? At least, it seems that way from the number of bananamen that populate your posts. I suppose, as they were rationed in the 40's, it's another deep-seated childhood deprivation of yours, along with Stanley.

As for the state of your shoes, don't worry about them, dress code is quite informal on the Clayton End.

And yes, you're right, you really been doing some "a**e kicking" on here. In fact, your incisive, pithy comments, verbal dexterity, well-aimed put-downs, and side-splittingly witty retorts have had us all in stitches!

Right, it is rather like extracting teeth, but I'll try again...what exactly is it that you want us "mindless" "Stanley bandwagon climbers" (only been watching 'em since 1960!) to do? We support Stanley, so naturally we want to talk about them. That's what the Stanley forum's for.

Any chance of a straight answer or shall we just prepare ourselves for more gibberish?

Re: Is Anyone Else Fed Up With Stanley?
 
just seen this thread and thought better of retorting to a troll trying to provoke. However, the fact remains that football is the most watched sport on Earth including all those 'World Championships' that only Yanks play. Everybody who watches this game has an opinion about why their team won/lost/drew and where it happened. We all have a different perspective on who played well/crap/indifferent. We all have an opinion on the clubs future/past/present. We all know the direction the present club should follow. The smaller the club - the larger the opinion, because your opinion carries more weight when there are less people forming those opinions.

I haven't replied to this thread to gratify numptys' ego, more to express to more undecided people what the attractions of football are. Its similar to politics in that everybody can have an opinion without being right or wrong, except that it is more enjoyable to participate in. Also I think there are more variables to football. Furthermore if we had no football then all men would be into shopping and there wouldn't be room for the genuine or more enthusiastic shoppers. Then we would be trying to avoid threads by these such people that "mATALAN was too busy today - I couldn't get in" or "the market had sold out of fresh pomegranites what am I to do?"
