"...Andy Holt is wanting people to come down early, [before the game]. He's putting bands on and wanting fans to stay behind after the game. We have happy hour after the game, five till seven it is two pound a pint, one pound if we win... ...the Working Men's Clubs are gone, but Accrington are now the centre of the community... ...look at it tonight, Stanley have lost but everyone is still here enjoying themselves."

This is what we need to try and emulate.

They are keeping the same shirt for the 3rd or 4th season in a row as well. They have turned in to the benchmark.
