Another WISH LIST !!!

yonmon · 16-10-2009, 21:37

I've had a 'Wish-List' thread on THE Forum once before!... in days long gone now.. It related to nothing special really!....something flippant it was (as you might expect!!)
The first daft wish ,in those far off days, exhorted John Coleman to sign up Michael Owen, who, it was reported was unsettled at Real Madrid at that time...it was THAT sort of offering on my part !....However , it did kick off a plethora of replies from many of my pen-friends on the Forum who felt that it had provided them with an opportunity to express their hopes for how they would like to see things developing for Accrington Stanley !.

So here's another one !!.....and for a start...I WISH that after NINE days without any movement whatsoever that the 'FUND-OMETER' would reflect a true total of the amount raised by the SOS appeal !..
Secondly that instead of constantly mouthing Hopes, Opinions and Predictions, that someone at 'The Crown'..would actually demonstrate some real Google Page Ranking and Communication Skills and make a defining statement in relation to the clearance of the HMRC Debt !..

I could go on...and on!..and on!!.. but I'm more than certain that someone out there in 'Stanleyland' (Have I coined a new phrase there??)...will want to add to this posting with an impassioned wish of their own !!.

Just type ' I WISH THAT !!,,,,,,,?' and the rest will follow !!!

'ON STANLEY!!....ON!!!...TO GREATER THINGS !!!'

I wish all this sorry affair is sorted, the debts outside the 308k are small and we can pay the SUPERB players what they DESERVE, keep them at the club and be in the play-offs at the end of the season.

PS. can I have an audi tt quattro 225 in blue ??

I wish that our little syndicate's lottery numbers will win enough this weekend to allow us (a) to pay off the HMRC debt, and then .......... (b) mount a takeover bid for ASFC.

Now rearrange these words : CAT PIGEONS THAT PUT WILL AMONGST

Wow go the Seniors, if or should be when we win the big one, maybe we could organise a game against the Ultras and/or the real Accrington Stanley (air fares paid of course). Keep us up with the info Kiwi

PS as for the wish list, well pay me mortgage off and assist in helping out Accrington Stanley with a decent ground and facilities for all spectators, nothing suave - ie not Old Trafford but something along the lines of say Kiddermnster Harriers ground holding up to 8,000 with the ability to grow with the club if (sorry when) we get to the promised land like MK Dons and Wigan have done. (Pipe dreams I know but if we don't have them we never will).

Would agree, Mr Y, that the fund total should be updated...the fact that it's been left for ten days with not a word of explanation is inexcusable.

But my wish would be for a more co-ordinated and professional approach to public relations and the media in general because at the moment it's a shambles. One day we have Rob telling us that the club might be looking to buy the ground, the next day we have JB telling us that we might have to sell players. What sort of mixed messages does that send out to the public? And what of the great "are we safe/are we not safe?" drama. We have some vague statement that we're "hoping" to pay off the debt before the court case with £150k from the fund, £100k from directors' contributions and £50k from a loan. But how do we know if we've got £150k in the SOS fund? It hasn't been updated for going on two weeks?!!

Why didn't they keep totally schtum about this until they were sure we're safe and then make a big announcement? In fact, why don't they have a planned approach to public relations and press management with one person co-ordinating it all, so everyone is singing from the same hymnsheet? Why isn't Marcelle making herself useful and doing this? Come on, Don and Rob, get it sorted!!

One part of my wish list answered, according to Helen Chamberlain!
