I know absolutely nothing about Accrington Stanley other than what I see on social media about them being an extremely well run club, who cut their cloth and work well with what they have. Sounds like the complete opposite to us and exactly the type of outfit will be soundly beaten by. Once went to Donny to watch them play Rushden & Diamonds in the FA Cup. Few of us went as neither Wednesday or United had a game that day so we were a mixed bunch and was something to do. Colin West was up front for R&D. Leeds didn’t have a game either, we got sussed by the Donny Whites mob and a quiet day out taking in an FA Cup game turned into a mini riot.

runningaround Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 same Accy who briefly threatened play offs in their highest league position in the rebirth? Can't see the joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Only a few weeks ago Accrington were possibly going to be a division above us if they reached the play-offs and won. We might still be welcoming Forest Green to Hillsborough. How many supporters know actually which county they play in or what their rough ground capacity is? Let that sink in when evaluating DC's impact at the club and how low we have sunk. PS They play in Gloucestershire and their ground capacity is 5,141. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxfordOwl Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 As a Student in the late 80's went to FGR to watch them play Halesowen Town. (Had a Brummie mate who was a Halesowen fan). Never repeat never did I think Wednesday would playing a league fixture there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miffed Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 There’s a chance that we could be playing Barrow Town or Brighton’s Academy team in a professional competition next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimesthorpian Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Been to Accrington and it was a great night. Footy in the raw, not a lambourghini in sight, real fans and stonking pies. Our 50 fans who get tickets will reyt enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to Irthlingborough and Rushden, they're villages for goodness sake! A few years ago when Stanley re-entered the league I went to see them play Port Vale, never thought I'd be watching Wednesday there, on level terms. I always wanted a player called Oliver or Hardy to score a last minute equaliser for them so I could see the headline "Oliver rescues Stanley from another fine mess" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neepsend Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Accrington Stanley beat Darren Moore's Doncaster Side Home and Away just either side of his departure to us. The home defeat was or was near enough his last in charge of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the name right at least. It's Barrow AFC, to distinguish from the rugby League club. They only just survived in league two so we won't be playing them in the league. I'll be going there...it's on the edge of the Lake District..... and Harrogate....to complete the 92 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
