Re: Stanley Fund Raising
Absolute fool.
I would love to know where all our wonderful board members are at this time of financial crisis??
I see Peter Shaw stepped down the other week, no doubt as he was asked for a few quid.
The whole situation absolutely STINKS and im sick to death of it.
If it wasnt for Rangers in Scotland I really do think we would be the total laughing stock of British league football.

Utter bollards in my view. This to me is treating supporters as complete fools.

Whatever we all may have thought about this promo, well done the club, and my hat is tipped to ever it was that dreamed the scheme up.

I presume that you have some evidence to support this statement ?.

Re: Stanley Fund Raising
Wasn't a fan of the idea at all when I first heard about it, and still not a fan of it now. Not at all. But I am happy that it raised the £5k - the club always needs the money.
I do think though that we can take some positives from our very negative reaction.
Maybe it is a British thing, while we are happy on the whole to poke fun at ourselves, and can cope with people doing so to us, we are very protective of things we love and care about.
You really can call me all the names under the sun - some people do - you can laugh at me and poke fun at me, and I will let it go over my head and chuckle at your attempts to get me to bite. But if you try to take the **** out of something I love and care deeply about – a family member, a good friend, or ineed my football club – I will react.
We even do it ourselves, to one another we call our small ground that is falling apart in places, the 'tinpot' quirks we know and love, and the way we have to all dig in to get things done. Yet if someone from another club dares to make a disparaging remark about our stadium, then they will get a reaction!
I think our true supporters could see what was going to happen – barrage of abuse from rival clubs – and reacted accordingly.
Perhaps we should all have been more worried if we hadn’t cared about our club being ridiculed – albeit only by a section of people, appreciate it got some good publicity too – if nobody had got upset about it then it would have indicated nobody cares?
Just my thoughts – now who do we play in the next round and is it on the television?
On Stanley On,
Rob

Re: Stanley Fund Raising
I'm with Chimer, Rob and ( ) Davo on this. I thought it was embarrassing and wouldn't work, but it wasn't and did.
So let's get over it and the Shakers in the same week.
