I think most fans just want to move on and get on with the business of what Stanley Fans do best which is "Support Their Team" with all the Pride and Passion that comes with being connected with that Magical & Mythical Name "Accrington Stanley" it also has to be inclusive of the Team behind the scenes.
I know there are good things going on behind the scenes but we don't hear enough of it and it often get's lost in amongst all the other issues that seem to constantly cloud the Club.
It's time for someone to stand up & be counted and look to reunite everyone connected with the Club.

Re: Chairman DON
I agree too, but the simple fact is that the watershed moment is coming quite soon.
Just have a read of this:
Stanley squad to take shape (From Lancashire Telegraph)
We've got to have 20 players registered by the start of the season according to FL rules. We've currently got four. However we can apply for special dispensation. Considering the way the projected deadline for the submission of the accounts seems to be moving on a daily basis, who's to say we won't need that dispensation?
As the Don has admitted, our ground won't meet FL rules in terms of seating capacity and we'll have to hope, yet again, they grant us dispensation on that.
I realise that the FL probably bend over backwards to make allowances for us, perhaps because of our historic name, but how long can we go on testing their patience?

Re: Chairman DON
Slight problem with that Cashy, the words 'O'Neil' & 'come clean' in the same sentence?? Can't see it happening, no matter how much we would all like it to

Re: Chairman DON
I have no issue in sitting down with either Supporters or the Club to help move things along even if that is just as a sounding board

Re: Chairman DON
The guy used more elaborate words than the labour party manifesto.
Once again he has told us nothing and avoided commiting to/confirming any dates or deadlines.
A bad start by our press officer, with such limp interview questions and a failure to narrow down the subject matter to get some real answers, he has allowed Oneill to perform another one of his Google Page Ranking masterpieces.
When will we get some facts and truth!

that's unfair Davo, another thread has already shown that Martyn is only a young lad on work experience, he's hardly a worldly wise media hack ready to bring down Industry leaders! It would have been his idea to perform the interview (as with Chris Turner), and he has put more on the website in a few days than 'the club' has in three months. He can only use what he is given and O'Neil has proved time and again that he will give nothing.

Re: Chairman DON
Disagree.
That was not an interview.
It was a properganda press release from the ministry of the interior on behalf of the party chairman.
We learnt nothing new, just the rehashed excuses from a man who demonstrates he does not have the best interests of ASFC, by placing himself in charge.

"Ministry of the interior?"...hardly. He's a young lad on a 3-week placement course, so he's hardly in a position to give O'Neill the grilling he so richly deserves. That should have been done by the experienced journalists of the local press, but unfortunately, they didn't take up the challenge.
Personally, I think they should let Smudgie loose on him!!
