2-0 Kee Twice

Apr 30th 2011

Team v Barnet

Cisak, Winnard, Edwards, Hessey (Long 46), Jacobson, Joyce, Procter, Ryan, Barnett, McConville, Gornell

3-1 Ryan 3 (three)

So in 2010 we lost Kee Symes and Grant and made the playoffs in 2011

We've lost 4 players this year so automatics then?

In 2010 from the team you quote we didn't just lose Kee, Symes and Grant, we also lost Lees, Miles & Flynn. So that was six we lost.

See who turns up for pre season, whoever doesn't ,withdraw there contract offer and sign players who are 100% committed to wanting to play for Accrington Stanley.

Bulls News say he has signed a 2 year deal with the Shrews. Always annoys me when they announce our deals before we get to know. Shrews chat also says Joe will be "joined by another familiar" face in the next 2 weeks.
Deano? How many more?

I'm sure Football19 will have something to say about Deano, if it is !!

Joe deffo gone to shrews, he tweeted about the deal today. Also said how much he appreciated the support at Accy. Good luck Joe.

Over years and years we've lost players but some not that special but this year we've lost some of the best players we've ever had ! Ryan , Gornell , Edwards and Jacobson are all extremely good players and were the fact why did so well last season ! In the back of my mind I have a feeling this is not the last to come! Players won't want to sign or stay with the squad looking so weak and out of tune! Coleys gunna have to get us out of the impossible this time I think and you couldn't blame him for wanting to go himself , I think phil will be something that will have effected him !! I can't see where we are going to get players from or attract them but in Coleman we and I have faith !

Extremely gutted about everything at the moment

MCR ADIM · 28-06-2011, 15:46

i agree FC if we cant get edwards, gornell, ryan, joe good enough contracts to sign than how the hell are we going to replace them with the players of the same capabilty, will really miss these players, only thing we can offer new players is 110% best support in the league, where will miss people like turner and bateson who could of had a real chance to shine

Not according to BBC

BBC Sport - Football - Proctor, Winnard and Joyce sign new Accrington deals

AccyAggro · 28-06-2011, 17:58

Gutted about jimmy ryan, but it was always coming. Good luck to the lad, I hope he progresses like so many ex stanley players havnt! Same to phil edwards. Not the best have clubs to have joined in stevenage but whatever its his choice isnt it.

The rest in (so far) being gornell and jacobson have showed no faith, being poor before they joined us and having not even a good season in them being signed in november and january, why couldnt they stay loyal and prove they could do it for consecutive seasons, as ryan and edwards did so often.

VALAIRIAN · 28-06-2011, 18:08

Good news that the signings are for two seasons!!!!

At least now we have a 1-2-1 formation

smudgie · 28-06-2011, 18:30

Well said Val !!!

I cannot believe some of the things I'm reading. We are going to get players from clubs that have released them or who are out of contract or who presently play in the Conference and want to move up a level.

Someone else wrote that we had a squad capable of automatic promotion. Untrue. We had a squad capable of reaching 5th place; no more and no less. It's sad to see the departure of those who are leaving, but there are better players out there.

The question of attracting them is important. JB and JC have a good record in this respect, but we have to remember that the club has had a lot of bad publicity over the last 18 months and this must surely make their task that bit harder.

I would like to see the club become much more proactive in presenting a positive image. What has it done so far during the close season to maintain and build upon the excellent work done during the play-off push?

Lewi · 28-06-2011, 18:52

Gutted about the departures so far but as long as Coleman is still steering the ship that's the main thing. The man's a genius to do what he's done with the resources at hand.

fc:stanley · 28-06-2011, 19:11

Revived red , that statement you've plucked up with me is for this season ! I know it's been said previous seasons and I've like you disagree but this year I have to commit to that statement and I really believe that I don't know where we will get good players from !

The factors are that because we are a football league club players don't want to play in a past sell buy date ground , have different poor training facilities every day , worry about not being payed on time , having a rubbish wage compared to every other football league player , not having up to date changing rooms , having to play on a beach etc ! Unfortunately that's today's footballers !! And we are now in football league and players want good standards now ! The only reason why players come and stay is only because of John and Jimmy and the fans ! We don't have anything else to attract them !

Joe Is the beat example ! As he has said so many times this season, he loves the fans and the gaffer and would of stayed but another league club come in and like he said on twitter , there set up is good ! They have good training facilities , a good pitch to play on , modern changing rooms etc!

I just don't see where good players will come from this season ! Good luck to
Coley as always! Can imagine if he left ....

Come on John , good luck with jewel picking !!!

Revived Red · 28-06-2011, 19:19

fc:stanley - I think we are in total agreement. The players are out there but it's a question of attracting them. That's why I referred to presenting a positive image. Maybe it's time to start a new thread for this.

MCR ADIM · 28-06-2011, 20:24

i agree we need to attack new players, and make them stay a few season so we can build another team capable of making the play-offs, not choping and changing, jimmy and phil been with us for 4 years, and its tooks us that long to build a squad that could reach the play-offs we knew by reaching it clubs would be watching our players and some have moved on to bigger and better things, but now we start again, building the squad, keeping the core squad which would of been jimmy, edwards, gornell, but like fc and revived said its attracking them players, what can we gurantee, we need to start looking for our own training ground, even if it means, not having much on wages etc, were a football league side!
