Ground passes final Football League requirement
http://www.accringtonstanley.co.uk/gfx/news/seats.jpgAccrington Stanley are delighted to have had our Football League status confirmed for 2009/10 with the news that we have officially increased our covered seating capacity to over 2,000 while maintaining an overall capacity of over 5,000.

The ground has been inspected by Lancashire County Council and the details of the new capacities passed across to the Football League, who require the above figures to be met by 1st May in a club's third season in the competition.

Speaking about the news Stanley's general manager David O'Neill said "A lot of hard work has gone on over the last few months, with much of it in the planning stages making sure that the ground operates correctly on a match day with the changes that we have put in place. More recently our director Bill Holden has put in a tremendous effort to get the physical job done, saving the club thousands of pounds, and we must also give a big thank you to the army of volunteers that have helped to make sure that the deadline was met. Now this box has been ticked we can get back to concentrating on the running of the club, preparing for 2009/10 and another season in the Football League."


:):D:):D:):D:):D:):D

We have got the seats in! We have got out league status for next year!
League 1 2010/2011 here we come!

Re: Please Read; The Seats The Facts!!
 

I think the club, especially Mark who has kept us updated on what's happening, deserve congratulations on this. Nobody seems to want the seats but, if having them means we preserve our league status, then so be it. It seems that the directors have been involved in some very effective wheeling and dealing that has got a nasty job done with the the minimum of expense and disruption.

Thanks too to everyone who chipped in with their time.
