Part or an artical from the Telegraph,,[quote]
Coming hot on the heels of the trip to Prenton Park is a vital home game against Bournemouth just 48 hours later.
And Mr Heys revealed that Stanley had asked the Cherries to put the League Two clash back to the Sunday, but Bournemouth were less than accommodating.
He said: “We asked Bournemouth if they would be willing to push the game back to to give us a bit more time to recover, but they chose not to agree.
“It’s disappointing but if they ask a favour from us in the future, we might choose to do the same.” [unquote]

To me AFC Bounemouth are trying to take advantage knowing that our boys will be tired from the replay in their perdicament at the bottom they may be thinking 3pts in the bag or that it was to short a time to make other arrangements ie for their fans hotel excetra. i also think if the shoe was on the other foot Accrington Stanley would have helped..we better stuff em saturday

expect nowt else from southerners Mab, fair play n them do not go together.

Mr Matthew · 13-11-2008, 00:14

Probably still peeved at us knocking them out of the FA cup.

K-P · 13-11-2008, 00:26

Someone else did that to us... then came here and got beaten.. well and truly backfired.... Chester or hereford someone like that ?

Astonishing that anyone should blame Bournemouth for not wanting to disrupt their schedules. It wasn't them who changed the Tranmere replay date!

Think the Stanley have it in their own hands, send the southern softies back down the M6 with their tail between their legs and without any spoils

And you think they would turn down £37.500 if the shoe was on the other foot

If I was running a pro sports team ,I'ld do sweet f.a to help the opposition.Thats business.

Not sure if any Bournemouth fans are having a weekend away in the holiday haven of Accy, but I have seen mentioned on here about people going to Bournemouth for the weekend in the reverse fixture. I think those Stanley fans would be pretty peed off if they were told 4 or 5 days before that the match had been moved.

A more local team may have agreed to change.

I know, I know - should be ashamed of myself.

If I were King John, know how I'd use B'mouth's refusal to pick our lads up for Saturday and I'll bet I'm far from alone !

2 things.
1 - you cant really blame Bournemouth, they are in a relegation battle and must fight for every point.
2 - Coley MUST rotate his squad in any way he can. Pual Mullin was knackered and his work rate was poor by his own standards in the 2nd half. I dont think Murdock or John Mullin will be to fresh after a full game.

And as soon as he does this his detractors will be baying for his blood !!.

.
I hope that Paul and John are fit though, they're the only ones with the ability to open up opposing defences and give Jimmy Ryan the space to run through !.

'ON STANLEY !......ON !.

Really?.............. I must have missed all the shots bombarding the goalies then, after these defences have been "opened up"? When was the last time the opposing goalkeeper was man of the match? We need someone with the confidence of youth to go on and have a crack at every opportunity, which is why I keep banging on about giving one of the young lads a start.......... and I mean our own young lads, not Gornell or Clarke thanks very much.
