Accy Stanley

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 No not Matthews or Bowles
But Accrington Stanley
Ian Rush’s favourite Reds
“Oooo are dey?”
I hear ye cry
Well look to your football history
Take a trip down memory lane
And with tones of the late Joe Gladwin
Slip though the cracks and crannies
Of a Northern landscape
We step like Alice through the looking glass
Chasing a leather casey caked in mud
Dreams pounding in the the heartbeat of a child
Ankles red raw from backyard tackles
And a terrace silent as gravestone
Waiting for CPD.

Notes

Please visit the following website and and gen up on the plight being suffered by Accrington Stanley as money racks up in the game for the so-called super 4 in the prem. Good news that local rivals Burnley Fc have shown great support for their stricken east lancs rivals and are playing against Stanley next Tuesday in a fundraising match. (www.saveourstanley.co.uk)
