Like a Morgue?
Coley apparently thinks so and is once again pleading to the apathetic Accy public.

Re: Like a Morgue?
I have to agree with Red-Osbornello, if the fans didn`t lift them on Saturday i dont think anything will.
I couldn`t make it last nights game so can`t comment on last nights crowd, but if Whalleys was our first real chance all night then i`m not surprised they wern`t singing that much.
The players have also got to want to help themselves to stay in this league.

Re: Like a Morgue?
Hmmm... Coleman blamed the players not listening to him for Saturday's performance, then he's blaming the fans for Tuesday. If he keeps going perhaps he'll eventually hit the really reason for our general 'tinpottedness'.

How can he possibly blame anyone or anything else, he's the manager!

Re: Like a Morgue?
Haven't we been here before?
It isn't Liverpool, people don't live and breathe football. Those of us that do are giving Stanley everything we've got, the club has to help us to bring other people in. This messageboard has suggested all sorts of things to get more people in, but the club have done too little, and maybe too late

Re: Like a Morgue?
Please excuse my ignorance but I thought Stanley was packed out these days? When did people stop going?

In the 1950s.
Seriously, though, we struggled to attract punters when we were playing attractive football and winning titles. We're not going to attract fans the way we've been over the last few months.

Correct in both cases.

Re: Like a Morgue?
I thought that there was a fair bit of singing on the Clayton End last night. It seemed to wane as the evening wore on because the team didn't give the fans anything to sing about. The morgue-like atmosphere was caused more by the fact that the ground was semi-deserted...yet again. It's a somewhat worrying fact that if you look at the three lowest gates for football league games over the last five seasons (1384, 1304 and 1234) they're at the FES...and we've only been there a season!

Re: Like a Morgue?
This is terrible!!!
We all have opinions, of what should have happened and what should happen in the future, however I am not sure that we can influence an outcome, believe me I tried and accepted failure gracefully.
IMHO we are now in the lap of the Gods!!
If we stay up, and I would sell my soul to the devil if it made the difference, I just hope the lessons are truely learnt.
All we can do is turn-up on mass and sing our hearts out, like our (footballing) lifes depended on it............cos in reality it does!!
God look kindly upon the patrons Of Accrington Stanley Football Club!
