Inevitable as it was, I'm sorry to see Piero go ...... But just read his farewell message on the fishy, which is real class! What a nice bloke he seems to be

Good luck Piero ...............Respect!

Re: Summer Signings!
 

If i remember rightly he is the same age as when Peter Murphy left, and i dont believe we received compo for him.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Not just lost a player, it also means the Ultras are a man down... Piero's Dad :)

Re: Summer Signings!
 

yeh another top lad carlo.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Good luck and thanks, Pierro, for some brilliant performances and goals.
I was staggered no other club snapped him up after last season so we were the lucky ones to have him for the past campaign.
As others have said, a real gent from a lovely family.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

A good statement from Andy Holt on fishy, look forward to see what develops.:)

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Although we all expected Piero to go I too am disappointed he went to Cambridge, He is better than that, Andy Holt has said there could be some exciting signings to be announced over the next month. I hope so as we won't replace Piero that easy. I don't think rebuilding a team with so many new players is an easy task. I await to see who does sign and from where.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Perhaps we could get it written in their contracts ................."If your Dad is an Ultra, or contributes to the Forum, you have to leave him at Accie for three years after you move to play elsewhere ......."

:p:p:p

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Piero has moved yon for personal reasons as far as i know.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Fully understand where Piero is coming from and truly wish him well for the future, but he better than that , but he has his reasons and good luck to him. However as a Stanley fan I feel our players are leaving on the rebound of disappointment from missing out on promotion to League 1 .
With Andy Holt at the helm we are going places , so next season should be as good if not better.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

So sad we couldn't keep Piero, an entire team playing with the effort he always gave would be practically unstoppable!

Re: Summer Signings!
 

I fully agree with your comments Div3North.

Pierro was a class player for us and he always gave everything whether we were playing well or poorly! Yes, his sincere message on the Fishy site is a reflection of what a good lad he is.:bow8:
I do agree though with other posters that he surely could have got a contract with a Division One club.

If you read this Pierro.......
Good luck to you and keep up the great progress that you have made so far in what will surely be a wonderful career in football.
Pierro, you are the sort of sporting character who should be presented as a role model for our younger generation........Totally honest in his work....Gives absolutely everything for his team.......A great family man too.......Such a good example.:mosher:
Thanks for the memories Pierro. Your 'Screamer' against Wimbledon will live in my memory for ever!:theband::thumbsup:

If I was a manager in Div One or Two he would be my first target to sign up for my team.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

From some of the rumours , fans of other teams will be singing "Are You Accy in disguise" at us next season.

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Yeah? And Stanley fans could have a new song for you - how's about 'Me & My Shadow'??:D

Re: Summer Signings!
 

Think "I'm a Loser" more appropriate?:D
