I noticed you did not answer the big question regarding local lads of ethnic origins who have contributed to the all of the local community not just a section without favour or financial gain.
Maybe the question is to hard for you.

When are you going to answer the big question

Re: What has happened to Accrington
There are endless number of people from ethnic origins who contribute to the whole of the community -
Teachers - don't segregate classes
Doctors - treat all patients
Policemen - don't just protect people of one origin
Shopkeepers - sell to anyone and everyone
Youth workers - work with young people across the board
You want names, i can give you names but I don't think it's fair to publish them on here. I'm sure there are more areas that I haven't thought of already.

No I didn't answer "the big question" as you put it, but then again, you didn't ask me, you asked Spuggie, or does your limited IQ affect your recall too? And, I haven't commented on it because I don't honestly know and, unlike you, I don't talk about things of which I know nothing.
What I do know is that you came up with some ridiculous rumour about Stanley changing their name. Like so much that you post on here, it turned out to be junk and you were quite rightly ridiculed for it. You then started shifting your ground and saying that it wasn't surprising that the rumour had started because of the change in ownership. When I asked if you had a problem with that, you said that you thought most Accringtonians would have. Again, your ridiculous assertation has been shot to pieces, and you're now saying that you "hope Mr khan is honest and true". So, could you explain the problem that you reckon most Accringtonians have with Ilyas Khan taking the club over...or is the question too hard for you?

Gayle, all the above you mention receive financial gain for their good work.
Can you or anyone else on here name local ethnic people who have contributed to the all of the community, not just their section with out financial gain or favour

If the last question was to hard for you,why not just say I do not know of any
local lads of ethnic origin who have contributed to the local community of Accrington without financial gain or favour.
Will you answer the question with honesty

Re: What has happened to Accrington
Okay, I was not going to bite.... but Geordie, you keep on at this so, why don't you answer your own question, Name ONE person, of white origin, who have contributed to the local community of Accrington without financial gain or favour.
I would have thought that Mr Ilyas Khan might qualify, for the original question,seeing that he has not gained anything, at this present time.
