I know, I've obviously seen you there macca but it wasn't a direct reference to you yourself. There's not just you in the supporters club is there? Nothing against you or anyhting you lot do but meeting in the Oaklea as the official stanley supporters club, when Stanley's pub is a stone's throw away is just a bit contradicitive....

I was there on the open day and have been in the crown more than before in fact probably had only been in a couple of times before it was taken over!!

I'm not making direct references

Just general

The crown is now the supporters club but the supporters club are meeting in a nearby pub on matchdays... Thats what is looking strange. Just my opinion

Exactly.....bit strange

maccawozzagod · 14-07-2007, 11:28

but as I have stated about 6 times we are not allowed to sell anything in there!!!!!!!!!

ffs

if we can't sell anyhting on matchdays then we may as well fold. And if we fold we won't be the OSC and can then drink anywhere!

it aint rocket science.

to sell anything be it memberships, merchandise, event tickets or whatever we have to go elsewhere. CAn't go in the clubhouse, cant go in the Crown, so going to the Oaklea. I aint standing on the car park every bloody week with people passing pints over the wall from the Crown.

And no its not just me in the OSC and so its not just me selling stuff

I'm with Macca on this until Eric allows it to be a true Stanley pub and that includes allowing the OSC to operate from there I will be having a couple in the Oakleigh then try one in the Crown unless as I suspect in will be full of away fans.

melonhigh · 14-07-2007, 13:47

Personally I don't care who's drinking in the Crown as long as it is full and the club is making money out of it. Of course it would make for good relationships between club and fans if the OSC was allowed to operate from there but as we have seen in the past Accrington Stanley FC don't always seem to be in touch with their regular supporters. Rob and friends have put in a lot of work for the OSC and they are entitled to operate from (and drink wherever) they like

lindsay ormerod · 14-07-2007, 16:34

I think the Club deserve a rocket up their collective butt for not letting the OSC sell stuff in the Crown; it's a ridiculous state of affairs, and I thought Eric was a fairly astute businessman !

The pub is leased and most pub leases restrict commercial activities on the Premises to those of a normal licensed public house.

Failure to comply with a lease can result amongst other things in the property being taken back by the Landlord.

Good post this...

The OSC is only trying to help the club go forward, they are selling bits and pieces not gold bullion and drugs, the club needs to move fast to put this to bed.

For once lets all pull in the same direction, let the OSC sell their Merch etc...

No you're quite right.

The landlords, Punch Taverns, don't call them "leases" they call them Retailers' Agreements.

Not Pendlered than? Haha

I'll definitely be back down during the season, and for the full weekend this time, not just a couple of hours.
