Re: Free Admission
Just going back on track, in the Accrington Observer EW says he is hoping for 3,500. Is that because of the away end taking up a large section or is that really all he is hoping for ? I would have thought he should wish for more when it's free ?

No but it's a large percentage in terms of actual space. Must be around 30% of the grounds capacity which for a team like Torquay is dead space. Maybe if the crowds turn out in force they might have to get some string out and section a bit of it off tomorrow

Why don’t you invite some of the Longsiders down Burt? They might appreciate cheering up tomorrow.

You know me I don't like to talk about the gate figure but what will Eric do tomorrow? I suspect that the figure given will be correct but it has been said that the figure given could be lower so he can say I let the people of Accy in for free and they still didn't come. If that happens then it will be a way of directing our failures this season away from Eric Whalley and on to the Accrington people.

Because anyone with half a brain can see that if Eric would've stepped down before this season like he said he would we wouldn't be in this mess.
Eric Whalley is a hero to every Stanley fan everywhere for getting us into the football league from Unibond obscurity & below; however biting off more than he could chew by staying on as chairman this season has cost us dearly and it is very likely we'll be back in the Unibond before you can say Justin Jackson.

Cue the bad karma.
Egits.

Re: Free Admission
bad karma. are you a hippy?

bagpuss isn't saying the same as you. bagpuss has attacked the club and called them liars and thieves. he has attacked everyone that works at the club. I understand but don't agree with your argument. But bagpuss is just a bitter twisted nobody who wants to attack everyone and anything to do with a club he pretends to support. look at his posting history.

Allegedly. But that's neither here nor there.

Karma is what the illiterate amongst us use to get their point across.

The away fans are restricted to the Clayton end terrace. Apparently, Stanley fans are getting all of the Whinney Hill side so we could feasibly get a crowd of over 4000. Wonder how many away fans are coming now it is free, prior to announcement anly 120 or so, now the figure is up around 500.
