Re: New name???
Rob should be on Talk Sport in the next hour
How about Accrington and Redbridge Stanley?
Kirkham and Wesham 's name is going begging at the end of the season

Not wound up as such on the initial joke but its more the confusion as to whether it is or not upon the 2nd, i thought jokes were supposed to be funny - tho not universally on this one, as much as they have got that as u say, but the flipside is that people dont know what to beleive for sure as club have both clarified & not clarified at the same time & to me has spoilt the hard work the club have done lately - as some have said may put off people getting season tickets - friday will tell wont it as to what effect it has as to how united it makes us

Re: New name???
Lancashire Stanley United sponsored by Winalot dog food.
Although wouldn't that be a trade discription offence though?

I wouldnt put anything past Eric TBH Tho i think aiming for 'Lancashire' rather than 'Accrington', being that it covers more population that the township, in his eyes would make more money ...............hence why it is conceivable.

Re: New name???
Rob said that not only would the name be changed to 2BR FM Stanley but also Jimmy and John are changing their names in a bid to avoid action by the league following their recent brushes with match officials
It's a joke, it's a joke' it's a joke
Accrington and Harwood Stanley has a ring to it
