'Strictly no Brucie' ?????
Hi everyone !! ....Like bad fish...long time no sea !!...
Copy of my letter to the Director General of the BBC...
Dear Mark,
Now I don't want you to think that in any way am I a fan of 'Strictly come Dancing'... but this evening I just happened to be stealing a crafty glance at this monument to Television culture..when Sir Brucie openly and cynically took the name of our great Club in vain..and using an extremely faux northern accent to do it !!...
(Quote..approx to a gal name of Chelsea)
'This young lady's parents named her Chelsea because they were fans of Chelsea Football Club...'..then, with a sneer ill befitting a newly dubbed knight of the realm..' Good thing they weren't fans of Accrington Stanley love !!...can you imagine it , 'Your breakfasts ready ACCRINGTON STANLEY !!!'..
I found this demeaning reference to our club more than insulting and shall be writing to my Member of Parliament about this breach of acceptable Television broadcasting... this is not what I call fair, and am seriously considering transferring my affections to ITV and 'Celebrity Family Fortunes' on a Saturday evening from now on !!.
Give my best to the wife and kids,
Yours etc..'Disappointed' of Accrington.
ps, I REALLY HATE CUR BRUCE FORSYTH as well !!
Au revoir !!...

Re: 'Strictly no Brucie' ?????
Stanley also got a mention tonight on the Liverpool match. Grant Holt the goal scorer for Norwich played for, I can't remember. against us two years ago at the crown ground. Never got a kick against us.

To be fair, he only came on as a 65th minute sub when Forest were already losing:
BBC SPORT | Football | League Cup | Accrington 1-0 Nottingham Forest.
He rates us highly though; or did! See Redash's thread from 4 years ago:

I suppose it was Jay !...and perhaps not material to be treated with such tongue-in-cheek cynicism and muted scorn as my post may have been seen to contain by some of the more sensitive contributors to our Forum !....still it would seem that my typing of A instead of E has offered, to keen eyes and minds, an opportunity to give me a little bit of pedantic prodding ......SO... well spotted !!.
