Had a look in at this one tonight, nothing else to do on a friday evening and must say Lincoln just did not turn up at all and were very poor. Accy did string some very good play together and took all three goals well.
Should make for a very entertaining game when we play them as they seem to attack from the start maybe that will be ideal for us as we can hit them on the counter attack

Also spotted Eric Whalley in the main stand and overheard that he is travelling on the team coach to away games :o :o :o

Coley loses his best players in the summer because he can't afford to keep them; lowest budget in the league; a transfer embargo for most of the summer; and yet he builds a side like this. OK it might go tits up towards the end of the season but what can you say except Johnnie Coleman, Football Genius.

Little club with no real ambitions other than to stay afloat but making a massive fist of it season after season
You just have to put up your hand and say yep, Passion and shedloads of heart can overcome most obsticles, Disappointed no but a tad envious YES :cry:

John Coleman is basically the antithesis of someone like Paul Simpson. He seems to thrive in adversity and you have to admire what he's achieved with Accrington. I've often wondered why no other club has come in for him but it may well be that he and Accrington are made for each other. I rather suspect we may well have a Darioesque situation whereby he'll possibly always be at Stanley in some shape or form, as long as they continue to keep their heads above water.
