Looks like yet another attempt at party politics to me. Very poor in my opinion.

thankyou

i dont know anything about the team or pretend to infact if this post hadnt have started in general discusion i would never have seen it but it was and somone posted wether it be a rumour or not that accrington stanley were looking at whitebirk which made me think hang on the people who support and love stanley may or may not want to have their team in what is essentialy blackburn infact if it was moved so far away it could effect attendance numbers etc

anyway i dont belong in ths section it kinda feels like ime wearing somone elses underwear so ime off to gen discusion and anything goes

ps:

no harm no foul mr kipax but your post did come across as nit picking , i guess like msn you can type things meaning it one way but can get read another way by somone else

I think the mix up with whitebirk is that half of the industrial estate falls in blackburn with darwen control and the other half (where pc world, comet, csl etc are) fall under hyndburn control.... but def not accy!! more like rishton... Rishton stanley??? nah don't think so, lol

Exactly. We would have assumed that whatever differences the local Labour & Tories have, they would have a concensus on the value to the town of Stanley. Instead of agreeing on how Accy/Hyndburn can best benefit from utilising to the upmost this great asset, we see them playing their own pathetic game of party political football.

I really do despair.

haaa right i think the mixup is someone saying whitebirk part of accy when they meant part of hyndburn.. unless they where doing it for effect... gosh would they?

It still seems a long way off where I thought hyndburn ended..

But at the end of the day it was a rumor heard by a journolist and not someone actually saying the club was looking at whitebirk as chav1 is twisting it..

did anyone see rob heys bit in the observer about people using the club as a political football.. and the very same day g.gones does exactly that on the internet.... sad.

as far as the politicians are concerned they all can shove off. I'm not getting involved in politics as I told Mr Jones last time what I thought of his idea and using the club as a pawn.

As for Whitebirk, I hope that it stays rumour only. If this club moves away from Accrington there will be no road back if it ever goes belly up. Stanley NEED to remain as close to the community it serves as possible. it is a community club and relies on people popping in and out all the time. It will rely on its bar takings and they will become negligible if the club moves to the sticks. Anyway whats the point in arguing about? Eric reckons the ground can sustain one more promotion yet and that looks further away every time I look at the league table and what we can afford in wages. It aint gonna happen yet!

I very rarely say this but I 101% support Peter Britcliffe in taking the stance the Council is taking. He is totally right and the victim in all this. He may have made injudicious decisions at the start, votes for honours, but he has supported Stanley more than any other Council Leader. It is important than someone speaks up for Peter besides himself. That should tell you something is seriously wrong Kipax for me to say that.

Owners come and go. Accrington Stanley is the fans and the players and they have done nothing wrong so there is no muck spreading about Stanley. There may be two big ego's but this is about right and wrong.

Ceefax are currently carrying the story.

I agree 100% with Peter actions in the last month or so so how I am gaining by suporting him? Surely the logical vote winner was to back Eric and inflict more damage on Peter?? You don't make any sense.
