Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
I don't think that would be fair onm the supporters club who will own it as they will want to exhibit it again.. at the open day for example.

I am sure they would, and should whip them out as often as possible. But why can't copies of the mounted prints and captions be posted in a virtual exhibition on the fishy site or even the OSC site come to think of it. Even those in asia will get a gander at them then.

Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
Went up there before the match yesterday and really enjoyed it. I urge everybody who can do, to come along. When you actually see Mr K's pictures blown up to a larger size and on display, it brings out qualities in them that you don't always see on t'fishy site. And Garth Dawson's pics are a fascinating look back to the past. Highly recommended!

Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
Kipax,
Had the pleasure of visiting today.
Superb is the only word I can use.
Yes, I do think we need to send the current squad to view it soon to remind them all how much pride, passion and hard work went into last season's triumph.
One minor comment; there's a picture of coley embrassing a keeper after the 1-0 win at Alty. The caption says Jon Kennedy, but surely it was Steve Jones in goal. (the following day he announced his retirement).
Also Rob Heys has managed to avoid being caught on camera!!

But the fact that it was the second or two that the final whistle blew confirming the title and promotion to the league makes it an important pic... so its the relevance rarther than quality...

Got to say, Mr K, my wife looked at one particular pic, & said... But he's not got all their faces!! (The one where we received the trophy) I had to explain to her, that it was not a 'posed' photo, but more a capture of the moment!!
She's only used to looking at wedding photos!!!!!
I liked the sillhouette, especially, as I got one similar on my digicam.
Really enjoyed it today, looking forward to seeing same in the clubhouse (that's if we get to enjoy a drink there before the game!)

Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
Kitchener, I was there around 3pm, if you were there when the noisy couple of kids were, then they were mine, and the mental Springer Spaniel in the grounds was mine as well.
As far as displaying the pictures to a wider Internet audience is concerned Kipax, my opinion is do it. As the OSC is there to promote the word of Stanley then there is no reason why you shouldn't. Our owning of the exhibition after closure is there firstly to ensure that no third parties profit from it and secondly to ensure that as an asset it can be viewed whenever possible. Therefore, Kipax.com would serve the club well. It would have to go to the vote of course................................. but that seems to go in favour of whoever suggested it every time at the mo

Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
Went up this afternoon with Hilda. Very nice job Mr.K., brings all the emotions back, and the fun.
Enjoyed reading the facsimile messages of congratulations from other clubs as well, makes you realise the size of the achievement in the sporting world, and how well received it was. [Particularly liked the one from Lancashire Cricket Club]
Anybody within striking distance, who's not been yet, it's on till Feb 18th.

Re: STANLEY ARE BACK Exhibition
Had a look with Mrs. Red today. Brilliant display, Kipax -loved the photos esp. the one with Jimmy Bell tearing off the head of the Barrow unfortunate. Only one I didn't like was one with me on - am I really that old?
Should be compulsory for all Accy school classes to visit as a local heritage project, and not just the Stanley exhibits!
