I don't recall seeing it at all since then.

(Though, it wouldn't surprise me if they dust it off for a run later in the year...)

Irrespective of what it may or may not have done for the club I always hated the thing with a vengeance and still do…..It was the basis for many an arse to take the piddle out of me and my home town just because I came from Accrington and had an accent. Bastards should be drowned in the stuff…..

I don’t think the advert was that successful in its own right, particularly when you consider it was displaced by a Humphrey.

Great publicity Karen... The club should be in top gear now all this publicity can only be good for the profile of the club, i'm hope somebody has contacted milk marque ?? good money can be made from projects like these.

Talking of making money !! Why is the club shop so poorly stocked ?? i appreciate we may have sold some gear but empty shelves wont make a penny.

Thanks to Karen and all the staff for their excellent work.

Give us a green to the football league.:engsmil:

What you drinking? It’s always been true……..Just a point and your welcome to disagree. Football and the premature death of a great club made Accrington Stanley Famous, not that bloody advert.

Fantastic Job Karen……
