The thing is though Joe, i went to Accrington a few seasons ago and whether their ground is fit for purpose is debatable. I can appreciate it was a former non-league ground and money is tight but unlike ourselves who also have small crowds and little money they aren't prepared to do anything about it and will still think nothing of charging us £15 or £16 to get in. So in the that respect, f*ck 'em, stick 'em in the bench and charge them £20 or whatever it is. They'll still have a great view ( which we don't at Accy) great facilities which means if you suffer from IBS or anything like that you can go to a fully functioning toilet which is adequately lit, has toilet paper AND a lock on the door ( which we don't at Accy ), and a great day out whatever the result ( which is impossible at Accy even if we won 20-0 ). So i say on this occasion the ends justify the means and it's a good decision.
