Genuine credit to your club, didn't stop singing for most of the game, some cracking chants, and good luck for the rest of the season. One of the best set of fans at Boundary Park in recent years.

Thanks for that - got to say your lot were pretty quiet, apart from the few silly kids who thought throwing stones at the coach was a good idea, they soon scarpered when the driver stopped though
Possibly the best ive seen in 10 years at Oldham, never got on there players backs, never stopped singing, and it was hardly quiet singing, in terms of numbers to noise and passion they have to be up there.
--------------------
Yeah, they were absolutely excellent.
About 50 or 60 of them never stopped singing the whole match.
I didn't here any singing of any description from any Latics fans all night.
Stanley fans were superb, songs throughout, and a lot of stuff I've never heard before. They were a credit to their club..
--------------------
was lucky enough to be with them at Woking when they got back into the league ..... great set of fans (great banners to)
…………………………..
Thought there fans were brilliant a breath of fresh air compaired to our fans who just sat there n slagged off the team tonight,yeah we were pretty poor but if we had put in half the effort they did we might of been able to lift the players n we might of even won but no most just sat there slaggin the players off which dont help no one.
……………………………
Yeah, they had some great flags.
One said "The harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph" it was a fair size flag as well.
They really were brilliant and very noisy.
………………………………
They sang from start to finish and they were losing for a large portion of the game and it made no difference to them, proper respect to them, great fans.
--------------------
what im saying here is that the Accy fans sang all the wat through the game even when losing never slaggged a player of n that mopst of our fans just sat there slagging players off.
…………….
There were 160 of them, and about 50 of them singing....and they were loud. Some good songs. Some things that made me laugh..."We shall not be moved. Just like a team, thats gonna win the JPT, we shall not be moved!", and "No surrender to the Blackburn Scum" both tickled me. But they had some other songs I'd never heard that sounded good. They were waving scarves and jumping around, quite German like. To be honest, their fans deserved the win tonight, good on them. And it wasn't because they won the game that they were singing. Minute 1-90, for a lot of which they were behind, they just kept singing.
--------------------
Spot on! 10 out of 10 to the Accy fans.
They had a drum (whatever happened to ours?) and it's the first time I've ever heard the instrumental Apache by The Shadows sung at a football match.
I think there must have been a problem with the acoustics in the home section of the RRE as it was as quiet as the Chaddy End.
--------------------
sadly, I feel they may be hollow words by late tomorrow.

This is getting to be quite a habit, praise from higher league clubs fans. Keep it up the Ultras, you do just as good a job at the 'Crown' (I am glad it has gone back to that name) and keep it up the team, more of the same in the league, thanks.

impossible to compare i know, but from what i remember back in late 50s early 60s, the "Ultras" make more noise fer longer than we ever did, perhaps Yonmon,Jeff, Wynonie, etc would care to give n opinion? think yer doin a fantastic job lads.keep it up when stanleys in premier.

We definately made more noise, we had our rattles, etc. When Stanley scored at Peel Park you could hear the noise in Blackburn. Seriously though, yes the Ultras are doing a fantastic job and are getting the Club a brilliant reputation.
Would agree, there was more noise, but, then again, we had bigger gates, apart from the last few months in '62. However, it was more generalised noise, as I don't recall there being specific chants and songs, like fans have nowadays.
The Ultras are one of the best things to happen to Stanley in recent years. They create a cracking atmosphere on the Clayton End and they're a real asset, both in terms of attracting younger supporters and enhancing our reputation amongst other fans.
