    Accrington Stanley

    They're having a very impressive season, top of their league and are as good as 3 wins above the playoffs with ten games to go.
    They won away at Luton yesterday and have been steadily climbing the div. two table for a few seasons now.
    They've also had their star players poached in recent seasons and they must have one of the smallest budgets in the entire four divisions.

    John Coleman is their manager who is a scouser who many people don't like.
    Fair play to him though he's done a great job

    Also have a Rotherham lad in there net Chapman. Really good kid played with him at Phoenix some years ago. Plucked from NECL by Chesterfield and now doing well for Accrington.

    Billy Kee and his 20+ goals will have helped Accrington to top of the table.
    Kee is the little lad that used to play for Burton.
    The young lad we released in January Akeel Francis signed for them on a short term deal.
    Joint lowest budget in League 2 with Morcambe being the other team.
    Recent article in the media about John Coleman & Jimmy Ball his assistant, some of it witty & humorous.
    John Coleman played for a boy's team aged 11 and Paul Cook another scouser played for the same team at the age of 7.

    Up the Acckers - a club that refused to die.
