Leave accy alone they don't deserve this,,,I say fair play to em,,,finishing where they did,,and the great run they had,,,,
I see people are saying they hope Torquay stuff em,,,,personally I don't,,,,if Torquay win,,surely there's more chance of stanners going!!!!

Spot on Mike, I've always liked accys fans, they're a great bunch. Had a great laugh with them with the supporters team and in the crown. Gutted for them tonight.

I can`t believe that I am agreeing with Bare Ben but he is completely right.
I am really sorry for all the Accy fans, good luck to them for next season

I also can't believe I'm agreeing with Bare Ben, but I do. Seriously guys, get over yourselves. John Coleman has achieved a footballing miracle in getting Accrington to the play offs this season and I, like others, was wishing them all the best, especially against a bunch of cheats managed by one of the biggest to***rs in the game. I suspect the vast majority of neutrals with any knowledge of lower league football will now be supporting Torquay in the final.

Right, this has gone too far! If you three don't start bickering again soon, I'll ban the lot of you!

I'm neutral towards Accy, couldn't really care less how they do so long as it isnt at Morecambes expense and I guess it's the same both ways. It's a rivalry of convenience, there isn't any ill feeling towards Stanley. Barrow on the other hand are pure filth.

What a bad day

I'm agreeing with Marky AND ezz




Time for a lie down in a darkened room,

Dark side of the moon anyone and err no Marky No.1

Welcome back! Seem to recall you said a similar thing when we capitulated in the Play Offs last season.

Hope you got your problems sorted

Gutted for them. Had some great crack with their lads over the years and me, Mrs Shrimper and the shrimplings were all watching last night cheering them on (in vain). Tiny Shrimp fell asleep and the first thing she asked this morning was 'did Accrington win?'.

Just didn't quite happen for them in the end and Stevenage were the better team over the two legs, fair enough. Look forward to locking horns with them again next season, now - always give us a tough game and always plenty of good banter.

Its Nothing to do with John Coleman, just some of their fans who constantly slag our club, ground and fans of at every opportunity, if you give it out then you should be prepared to take it.

[heysham_mfc]

Hope they use the play off money for a new pitch if nothing else! Some Sunday league have better pitches than that!

Not a fan of this thread. Mike pretty much hit the nail on the head for me. Accy are only our rivals purely through geography, not because of a hatred between fans. I remember 2 Christmas's ago, I was at a family party when i met one of their fans (the guy with the tatoo on his head) and we had a long chat about the rivalry between us and them. He couldn't understand why a large proportion of our fans hate Accrington and was bit confused to why we all slag them off. If anything i class Bradford as a bigger rival, my hate for them is beyond insane.

Home v Satan

I agree with the majority, really disappointed that Coley and Stanley didn't make the final. Every Accy fan I've met, bar a neo-Nazi who Accy fans got rid of, has been thoroughly decent and a proper fan. Coley's a genius and always will be, and he's built a very good side. Obviously would love to see a couple of them come here next season and also to renewing our rivalry but it will never be the fairly pathetic 'hate' thing some people want to make it.

Finally, I've never liked Westley and Cheatanage but big respect to him for what he's done. At Farnborough he got to the FA Cup 3rd round to play Arsenal; he's won the FA Trophy; got Stevenage promoted; and now into the League 2 play-off final.

And his mantra? The name of his office service company was AIMITA and it was plastered all over Farnborough. What does it mean?

Attitude is more important than ability.

He builds teams and a lot of them are hungry non-leaguers willing to give their all. He's a determined winner, like Coley and I'm hopeful with Jimbo too.

A very disciplined work ethic.

Read with interest about their daily training schedule.

Not suggesting we go that far but our training days in terms of hours need to be much better then the 2 or so under SMC.

In that respect Capaldi was spot on.

Italian clubs spend much more time on the training field practising technique and ball work. Let's hope that Jimbo, Ken and Drummy put some of their ideas on new training methods into practise.

Hard work always pays dividens.
