Spoke to Accrington this afternoon the lady I spoke to said the game is definatley on aslong as the weather doesnt drastically change and the weather forcast is as predicted.

So basically they'll do what they usually do and call it off about 2.30.

Unsure where exactly this picture has been taken from, but it looks grim (via Nico): https://x.com/#!/manse7/status/14772159 ... 45/photo/1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The main thing i remember from Accrington was their centre back doing an absolutely disgusting tackle on Carayol which bordered on assault as he was so late and made no attempt to play the bal and was rightly sent off in the last minutel.Also the floodlights were awful and the last 20 minutes was played in semi darkness.I dread to think what those floodlights will be like about 4 oclock tomorrow!!! Good luck.

Ive got 15-1 odds on 2-2, which looks reasonably likely, Accrington usually concede even when they win. Accrington are on a similar unbeaten run to us and are always a good test at home, I'm worried that their "pitch" may prevent us playing the passing game but i'm not particularly worried by any of their squad ripping us apart so a draw would be a fair result.

With our terrible record against Stanley away, I'd quite happily take a 0-0. Would make a nice change after some terrible results up there.

Accrington are statistically one of the most difficult teams to beat in league 2

Last year they lost just 9 league games (only champions Chesterfield lost less) and this year they have been beaten just 6 times.

Bad weather and terrible pitches and low crowds are what Accrington thrive in and even a point would be an amazing result today IMO
