For me this season is a right off, our squad isn't good enough to compete for financial reasons and relegation shouldn't bother us. The 1000 fans we have will still come in the conference and conference north.
League two was our premier league and we have survived there for 7 years!!!
who knows in ten years time we might come back up and steal the hearts of the locals again (temporarily!!)

If you think our squad isn't good enough you want to take up watching netball.I think it's an insult to a squad that is talented and trying their hearts out,the team has been ripped apart with injuries and sheer bad luck and all sorts of crap off the field doesn't help.James Beattie is a real revelation with very good contacts as are his back room staff,keep the faith a winning run is on the horizon and we'll still make the play offs.As for dropping out of the league SOD THAT....On Stanley On Stanley on!!!!

Many clubs in our position would invest in better players, we cant!

Hang on... don't you realise that we're very, very unlucky? Either that or we keep being given the worst officials available, and that costs us? Surely you must realise that? Or are we all 'numpties' as Cashman keeps saying?

Re: Stanley to close within months ...
We DO have a good squad and I feel sure things will turn around for us on the pitch . Our real problem is off the pitch . Money ,money , money or should I say the lack of it . As we know £000,000s goes into the premier teams , but the poorer teams like Stanley are left to struggle and unfortunately close the doors . We can't let this happen to Stanley again , we need some damn good ideas or more sponsors to generate our income. It Ok me talking , like everyone else , I see the problems but have no idea how to solve them , just hope someone out there can help.

To be honest i think most of those who think we got a poor squad, have seen very little of our games this season n have made minds up due to our league position? could be wrong but its my thoughts.

Re: Stanley to close within months ...
AGM last night So how much of a shortfall do we need to make up? How much is the club loosing on a week by week basis? Is there a plan in place to stop this? or will we just revert to the old age failed method of having a go at the people of Accrington!
I don't know which is more worrying, the lack of cash or the lack of knowledge
