Poor old Jase was dragged away in handcuffs merely for trying to get the morons to go easy on the unfortunate fan being victimised. What a disgraceful end to a wonderful night. Appalling behaviour by stewards and police which was totally unnecessary. Arresting fans for enjoying themselves - what the hell is the world coming to? Whoever was in charge of the security operation should be sacked for allowing such sickening over-reaction.
That steward has been reported to the club and I will gladly pass his name to whoever wants it. It would be a disgrace if he ever stewards a game again.
Is he one of the regular Stanley stewards?

This thread wont be closed. What went on was terrible mismanagement of resources. It can and will be discussed here. So that in the future it will not happen again.

Just seen the goals on Sky Sports News. Putterill's goal looked even better on the telly. And I bet Ryan Taylor couldn't put another in the top corner like that if he tried a hundred times

Yeah sorry about the second photo not being of great quality, it's just a print screen of a part of the video. Just wanted a still of both the flags together.
Here's the vid. The first minute & half is skippable, except for the great introduction by Barry
I know nothing about football BUT, I went through to Accrington tonight and commented on the amount of Stanley fans and Newcastle fans all together talking away before the match. Everyone seemed well behaved as usual for a Stanley match. I couldn't believe it when I was coming home and the police were everywhere and an ambulance was sat outside the Crown pub. I wondered what the hell had happened. There's never any trouble at Accy Stanley. My first thought was the police were perhaps overloaded with adrenaline because Stanley were playing Newcastle. All the Newcastle fans I saw before the match were very well behaved and mixing with the Stanley supporters. I remember thinking on my way home, I must look at Accyweb to see what's gone on. I hope everyone is ok
You guys were a real credit to lower league football, the attitude of your manager and players was spot on and I thought you deserved abit better. We're a very lucky team this morning.
Admittedly, it wasn't our first team that played, not one of them started against Aston Villa, but you ran us very close, and should be proud of your achievements.

Do you reckon Ameobi & Ranger would be pushing for a first team place if they knew that you play football better on your feet rather than spend most of it sat on their backsides or led on their backs ?
