In their defence they are nobodies and those that like them support Burnley or Blackburn as their big club. 

We shouldn’t be on a level playing field with em but we are low in our historical adventures and they are punching. 

Never understood the beef with these or the likes of Morecambe. Always think it’s a bit small time from our fans.

Oh I've no beef, I'm still firmly in the "thank fuck we've got a club" camp. I'm no snob - we are where we are. 

Without looking into it, its just baffling how they've managed to fund the rise through the leagues with a fanbase seemingly like Colls, or Chorley at best.

Not necessarily aimed at you mate. They are crap and in a crap tournament as are we.

The spanking at Bristol city was a shocker, phillips & Reid managing…. And it was Birch stag doo, terrible display. 

Shite, fucking shite.
I was at Reading, Accy, Hull and Bristol.
Dark days and folk lose their shit now if we draw away from home.

Only missed brizzle and birch stag do as I was injured, I would say thank fully but I’d be lying 

Just rung up, it appears Accrington ARE checking against Bolton's member database, before contacting me back and allowing a purchase.

So, perhaps be a little smarter than me, and use an email address that isn't affiliated with the club... d'oh.

I might have to get my football-hating missus (12 years and she's still never come to a game) to ring up later. 

Remember doing Tranmere and Gillingham back to back away 5-0 defeats. I think Onion man got the gig when we were in the car home from Gillingham that day.

grim grim days 

(I think we lost 5 nil at home the week in between too)

All these heavy defeats after administration- just look at those clubs that beat us and ask "where are they now?".

None of them far above us, and some lower.

Makes you realise how well we've done in a short time.

Hotel showing the game.

With the £5k fine they’ve received after playing us the other week hopefully they spot an opportunity to give us some more which pays it off 

Accy fans singing ‘You’re fucking shiiiiit’ after they’d scored their 7th was an all time BWFC low for me.

We’ve moved on a tad since then.

This appeared today on Stanleyways:

From the Managing director 

(1 of 3) ASFC has been fined £5k for discriminatory chants at the game v BWFC on 22nd October - we also have to implement an action plan at some considerable ongoing cost - we play BWFC again in 3 weeks on TV and we WILL be observed and monitored..

(2 of 3) We can't afford for any discriminatory behavior (and therefore fines) to be repeated EVER - if it does there will be zero tolerance from the club and the offenders will be removed from the stadium & banned, and the management of home matchday's will become more stringent

(3 of 3) The club will not fund unnecessary match day cost increases - they will be passed on, including the cost of more policed games, tickets, etc. - please take note and EVERYONE please behave like the 99% of ASFC fans already do....loud, proud and enjoy the matches #asfc

Is this the second time a fine has happened for the same sort of chants?

Now, if those amongst us who’ll be in their end could start some ‘discriminatory chants’  🤣
