That was 2 years ago.

Stanley get regular TV coverage.

Does the Nation remember Andy Gouck for his stint Captaining Morecambe or for shooting Accrington Stanley passed Huddersfield Town on Match of the Day live?

Re: Twiss

As Tin Monkey says we need defenders. We are still the fourth highest scoring team in the league, but now we have conceded the most goals in the league. Why are we looking at strikers ? What we need is an experienced defender to organise and control the defence. We need players with league experience not unproven Conference players. Do people not realise we are in trouble and we need to get out of it quickly or it will be a quick return to the Conference, then Coley and Eric will not be remembered for the people who got us into the league but the people who got us out of the league.

Coley said in the League Paper yesterday that he was going to search the market for a defender in January.

He should have been searching the market for the last few years as our defence has been crap for ages.

Re: Twiss

I would say you need a new goalkeeper as well as some defenders.

We've had 3 promotions with a crap defence. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Re: Twiss

I don't think the defenders are crap as individual players. The problem seems to me to be a lack of effective coaching to make them a cohesive and organised unit. Let's not forget that we have had defenders in the league's "Team of the Week". Too many goals have been given away because of uncertainty about who should be tackling and who should be covering.

Of course it's broke, and it needs fixing quick. We have conceded the most goals in League One and Two and you don't think it needs fixing. We have scored three goals in each of our last two games (both at home) and not won either game because we have conceded seven goals - and you think that the defence doesn't need fixing. We have had two clean sheets in twenty one league games and you think the defence is ok and doesn't need fixing. Wake up and get real, if we carry on defending like this it will be a long downward slide.

I agree; we shouldn't be conceding so many goals. I disagreed with your comment of "He should have been searching the market for the last few years as our defence has been crap for ages", which of course is rubbish.

I disagree that the whole problem is the defence. Since Craney left there is a huge gap in midfield - which Proccy or Harris can't fill - so that's where a lot of the goals come from.
